Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the Veteran's claim for service connection for a traumatic brain injury (TBI) to obtain an adequate VA examination and opinion regarding direct service connection.
The deciding factor: The November 2020 VA medical opinion is found inadequate, and the AOJ failed to obtain an adequate opinion with respect to the Veteran's TBI.
