Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for skin cancer to obtain an addendum medical opinion addressing the Veteran's exposure to jet fuel and firefighting foam.
The deciding factor: The examiner's rationale did not fully address the Veteran's claimed exposure to jet fuels and firefighting foam, leading to an incomplete analysis.
