Granted
The Veteran's service-connected disabilities precluded him from securing or following a substantially gainful occupation during the period from January 5, 2009 to September 30, 2009.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's employment was unsuccessful due to his service-connected disabilities which aggravated his lumbosacral and cervical conditions, leading to travel requirements that he could not meet.
