Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the veteran's claim for service connection for PTSD due to incomplete development of evidence related to in-service stressors.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the AOJ did not complete necessary actions to verify the Veteran's second claimed stressor, requiring a remand to correct this error.
