Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for bilateral foot conditions due to an inadequate VA examination and missing service treatment records.
The deciding factor: The VA examination opinion was found inadequate because it ignored the Veteran's lay statements and failed to address aggravation of a pre-existing condition.
