Partly granted
The veteran was granted a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU). The claims for specific evaluations of the left knee were remanded.
The deciding factor: The Board concluded that the criteria for TDIU have been met due to the Veteran's inability to obtain or maintain substantially gainful employment on account of his service-connected disabilities.
