Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for bilateral feet and knee conditions to correct a predecisional duty to assist error, requiring medical examinations to determine if any diagnosed disabilities are related to the Veteran's active-duty service.
The deciding factor: Remand is required due to insufficient competent medical evidence regarding the relationship between the Veteran's claimed disabilities and his military service, necessitating further examination.
