Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a right knee condition to correct a pre-decisional duty to assist error, specifically due to an inadequate VA examination.
The deciding factor: The July 2024 opinion is inadequate as it did not address lay contentions of ongoing symptomatology and thus requires an addendum opinion.
