Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for arthritis of the right and left wrists, but denied service connection for PTSD. The back disorder claim was remanded.
The deciding factor: Service connection for the right and left wrist disorders was granted based on continuity of symptomatology since service, while the PTSD claim was denied due to a lack of evidence supporting a current diagnosis during the appeal period.
