Granted
The Veteran is granted a clothing allowance for the 2020 calendar year due to the use of right and left knee braces.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that the Veteran was issued bilateral knee braces to treat service-connected disabilities, and these appliances caused damage and wear and tear to the clothing.
