Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a TBI to correct pre-decisional duty to assist errors and to afford an adequate VA examination.
The deciding factor: The September 2024 VA opinion is found inadequate due to reliance on inaccurate factual premises, failure to consider all evidence of record, and inherent contradictions.
