Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder and sinusitis, while denying service connection for other conditions. It also granted a 50 percent rating for migraines associated with a TBI.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's psychiatric disorder and sinusitis were directly linked to in-service events, whereas the other claims did not meet the criteria for service connection.
