Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for lumbosacral strain to the AOJ for further development, including obtaining missing service treatment records and private treatment records, as well as a medical nexus opinion.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to the lack of sufficient evidence to adjudicate the claim, specifically missing service treatment records, private treatment records, and a medical nexus opinion.
