Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the claim for service connection of sleep apnea because it needs more evidence, including military records and medical opinions.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the VA did not obtain all necessary military personnel records and STRs, and the medical opinions provided were inadequate.
