Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the Veteran's claims for service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, right ankle disorder, cervical neck disorder, and head scar. The Veteran will be scheduled for examinations to determine if these conditions are related to his service.
The deciding factor: The Board found that a remand is warranted due to pre-decisional duty to assist errors, as the Veteran has not been scheduled for VA examinations to determine whether his disorders are related to service.
