Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for right ankle arthritis and right elbow strain disability, but remanded the claims for residuals of traumatic brain injury (TBI), a skin disability, chronic lateral collateral ligament sprain of the right ankle, and left knee strain disability.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on evidence showing continuity of symptoms since service and direct incurrence in service for the right ankle arthritis and right elbow strain disabilities.
