Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the service connection claim for a bilateral knee disability to correct a pre-decisional duty to assist error, including scheduling an additional VA examination.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to a pre-decisional duty to assist error and the need for a more definitive medical opinion on the nature and etiology of the Veteran's claimed bilateral knee disability.
