Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder and obstructive sleep apnea as additional development is required to obtain a complete copy of the Veteran's service records, and to provide adequate medical opinions regarding the etiology of these conditions.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to incomplete service records and inadequate medical opinions that disregard relevant in-service symptoms and current evidence.
