Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the case for a more complete medical opinion to address the nature and etiology of the Veteran's bilateral foot disorder, including pes planus and plantar fasciitis.
The deciding factor: The previous VA examination was found inadequate due to an inaccurate set of facts and lack of thorough analysis addressing the Veteran's in-service symptoms.
