Remanded (sent back)
The case is remanded to obtain addendum medical opinions addressing the service connection for a lumbar spine disability and the severity of the right great toe fracture residuals.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to inadequate previous opinions that did not address the central questions asked by the Board's April 2024 remand directives.
