Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for a right ankle condition due to an inadequate VA medical opinion.
The deciding factor: The September 2024 VA examination was found inadequate, and an addendum opinion is needed to clarify whether the Veteran has a current diagnosis of a right ankle condition and its etiology.
