Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for uterine fibroids due to a lack of complete service treatment records and service personnel records from the Veteran's reserve duty.
The deciding factor: The AOJ did not adequately document all reasonable efforts in ensuring that all available STRs and SPRs from reserve service be associated with the Veteran's claims file, leading to pre-decisional error in violation of the duty to assist.
