Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a psychiatric disability to correct a pre-decisional duty to assist error, specifically regarding the presumption of soundness at entrance into service.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary to obtain an adequate opinion on whether the Veteran's current acquired psychiatric disability clearly and unmistakably existed prior to her entrance to service and was not aggravated by service.
