Partly granted
The appeal was partially granted by reopening the claim for service connection for Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD) but denied for both conditions.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record did not support a finding that the Veteran's IHD or hypertension were related to his military service, and there was no credible evidence of exposure to herbicide agents during service.
