Granted
The Veteran's back brace, worn to treat a service-connected disability, was granted an annual clothing allowance for the 2020 calendar year.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the back brace tended to wear out or tear the Veteran's clothing during 2020, granting the annual clothing allowance based on this finding.
