Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection due to a lack of complete Reserve service records and unclear in-service toxic exposures.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that there is an incomplete record regarding the Veteran's Reserve service and potential in-service toxic exposures, necessitating further development before adjudication can proceed.
