Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for a left ankle disability and lumbosacral disability as there are pre-decisional duty-to-assist errors requiring further development.
The deciding factor: Remand is required due to incomplete service records and inadequate VA medical opinions, which raise a reasonable possibility of aiding in substantiating the claims.
