Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for right and left knee disabilities due to a pre-decisional duty to assist error in failing to obtain complete service records.
The deciding factor: VA committed errors in not obtaining complete service records and failing to provide a VA examination, necessitating further development before a decision can be made on the merits of the claims.
