Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for a low back disorder due to a pre-decisional duty to assist error and the need for additional evidence.
The deciding factor: The absence of post-service treatment records and the need for an examination to determine the nature and etiology of any low back disorder necessitate a remand.
