Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for a neck disorder and sleep apnea due to inadequate medical opinions.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner's opinions were found inadequate as they did not address all relevant in-service incidents or consider aggravation by a service-connected disability.
