Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for left knee joint osteoarthritis and strain with effusion, left foot osteoarthritis, and right foot osteoarthritis based on presumptive service connection. The claim for bilateral plantar fasciitis was remanded.
The deciding factor: The probative evidence supports continuity of symptomatology for the granted conditions since service, meeting the criteria for presumptive service connection.
