Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to service connection for a right knee disability and left knee disability, to include as secondary to a service-connected disability, due to an inadequate VA medical opinion.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary because the April 2018 VA medical opinion was found to be conclusory and inadequate.
