Remanded (sent back)
The appeal for service connection of a right knee disability has been remanded to correct an error in the duty to assist. The Board will review new evidence and schedule an examination.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the previous VA examination was insufficient to adjudicate the theory of service connection based on the in-service injury sustained from ruck marching and carrying heavy objects.
