Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for left ankle, right ankle, right shoulder, right wrist, and left knee disabilities. The appeal was denied for a compensable rating of the left ear hearing loss disability.
The deciding factor: The current disabilities were found to be related to in-service injuries based on medical records and lay statements from the Veteran.
