The Veteran's service-connected residuals of prostate cancer, erectile dysfunction, and hypertension are all found to be related to his in-service exposure to herbicide agents, specifically Agent Orange.

The Veteran's hypertension is granted as a result of the PACT Act, which establishes it as a presumptive disease for in-service exposure to herbicide agents.,Right knee strain and erectile dysfunction are both granted based on service connection.

The Board has remanded the claims for service connection due to unsuccessful attempts by VA to obtain relevant records from the Veteran's SSA disability benefits file.

The Veteran's diabetes mellitus type II is rated at 20 percent, erectile dysfunction is not compensable, and the lower extremity peripheral neuropathies are each rated at 20 percent prior to February 14, 2022, and 40 percent since that date.

The appeal of the service connection claims for multiple conditions has been dismissed due to the appellant's death.

The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an evaluation in excess of 20 percent for diabetes mellitus with erectile dysfunction, finding that his condition was manageable and did not require regulation of activities.
