Partly granted
The Board granted the claims to reopen service connection for bilateral lower and upper extremity neuropathy but denied service connection on the merits.
The deciding factor: The evidence was new and relevant, allowing the reopening of the claims. However, there is no direct or secondary evidence linking the current conditions to the Veteran's military service.
