Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter for a VA examination to address whether the Veteran's back disability is related to service, including the rigors of training.
The deciding factor: A remand is necessary due to the lack of a medical opinion addressing the relationship between the Veteran's back disability and service, as per the Joint Motion for Partial Remand.
