Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for a back disability and sarcoidosis due to insufficient evidence and need for additional development.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary to verify in-service toxic exposure at Camp Lejeune, obtain addendum medical opinions, and ensure all relevant records are associated with the file.
