Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for insomnia, right ear hearing loss, and a neck disability. The claims for PTSD and left ear hearing loss were also denied. However, the claims for left knee, right knee, and back disabilities were remanded.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that any of these conditions began during service or are related to an in-service injury or disease.
