Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for migraine headaches and skin cancer as additional development is necessary to correct pre-decisional duty to assist errors.
The deciding factor: The January 2024 VA examiner's opinions regarding both conditions were found inadequate due to incomplete or inaccurate factual premises, and an additional medical opinion was needed.
