Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for migraine headaches, right elbow flexion limitation, and left anterior scalp scar. It also granted a 20 percent rating for the right elbow flexion and a 10 percent rating for the left anterior scalp scar. The claims for higher ratings were denied.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the evidence of record, including medical examinations and reports, which supported the granting of service connection and specific ratings for certain conditions but not others.
