Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for laryngeal cancer and a heart disability to the agency of original jurisdiction for further development.
The deciding factor: Remand is required due to an internal inconsistency in the RO's findings regarding herbicide exposure, necessitating additional development to corroborate toxic exposures during the Veteran's period of active duty service.
