Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for an acquired psychiatric disability due to inadequate medical evidence and a need for further development.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that the current medical evidence is insufficient to determine the etiology of the Veteran's claimed psychiatric disabilities, necessitating additional examination and development.
