Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for eligibility for specially adapted housing and special home adaptation due to not meeting the legal criteria.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support that the Veteran had a permanent and total disability that met the criteria for either specially adapted housing or special home adaptation, as his service-connected conditions were not sufficient under the applicable regulations.
