Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the claim for service connection of a foot condition because no VA examiner has opined on whether the Veteran's current foot condition is related to service. The Veteran will receive an examination to determine the nature and etiology of his claimed foot condition.
The deciding factor: The Board cannot make a fully-informed decision due to the lack of a medical opinion on the causal relationship between the Veteran's current foot condition and his service.
