Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection of right hip, left hip, right knee, and left knee disabilities to obtain additional evidence and provide addendum medical opinions.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to an absence of contemporaneous STRs documenting in-service complaints or treatment, and incomplete private treatment records.
