Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issue of service connection for an STD (claimed as genital warts/herpes) to afford the Veteran a VA examination.
The deciding factor: A remand is needed because there is no documentation in the claims file that the Veteran was informed of the date, time, and place of his scheduled VA examination.
