Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for right and left knee disabilities due to a continuity of symptomatology since service, but remanded the claim for a sinus condition for further development.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the Veteran's testimony and medical evidence showing a continuity of symptomatology related to his knees since service. The sinus condition claim required additional development as the Board found that substantial compliance with previous remand directives was not obtained.
