Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for neurologic, liver, renal, and testicular disabilities due to exposure to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune and fire-fighting foam for additional VA examinations.
The deciding factor: The May 2025 VA examiner's medical opinions were found inadequate as they did not address the Veteran's specific claims of toxic exposure or provide a detailed rationale.
