Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for a cervical spine condition and bilateral knee condition for further development, as the post-remand medical opinions are inadequate.
The deciding factor: The opinions provided did not substantially comply with the Board's remand directives due to reliance on the absence of documentation in service records without considering other evidence and were generic in nature.
