Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for a lower left back condition to obtain an adequate medical opinion regarding the Veteran's lay statements and continuity of symptomatology.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to an inadequate medical opinion regarding the Veteran's claimed in-service motor vehicle accident and its relation to his current lower back condition.
