Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for a back condition and neck condition to schedule VA examinations as there is evidence of an in-service incident and current symptoms, but no medical opinion linking the conditions to service.
The deciding factor: Remand is required due to the need for a VA examination to determine if the Veteran's claimed conditions are related to her military service given the described in-service incident and current symptoms.
