Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for special monthly compensation under 38 U.S.C. § 1114(l) and (t) to correct a pre-decisional duty to assist error, specifically to afford the Veteran a VA examination to ensure a complete record upon which to adjudicate the issue on appeal.
The deciding factor: Remand is required to correct a pre-decisional duty to assist error in not obtaining an opinion to determine if the Veteran requires aid and attendance due to his service-connected disabilities alone.
