Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for a right ankle condition and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) to correct pre-decisional duty to assist errors.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record is inadequate to determine entitlement to service connection, as it contains speculative or inconclusive opinions that do not provide sufficient basis for support of the claims.
