Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for a lump in the right groin inguinal area but granted it for a left leg laceration scar. Other claims were remanded.
The deciding factor: The lump was evaluated as a symptom of existing conditions, while the scar had objective evidence supporting its link to an in-service injury.
