Remanded (sent back)
The Board of Veterans' Appeals (Board) remands the claims for further development, including obtaining a complete record of service treatment records and scheduling VA examinations to determine the nature and etiology of the Veteran's claimed conditions.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to incomplete service treatment records and inadequate medical examinations that do not address all relevant evidence of record.
