Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for a neck and back condition to ensure VA fulfills its duty to assist with obtaining relevant medical records and scheduling new VA examinations.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to insufficient evidence regarding the etiology of the Veteran's conditions, specifically whether they were caused or aggravated by his service-connected disabilities.
