Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a lumbosacral strain and generalized headaches, but denied an initial compensable rating for allergic rhinitis.
The deciding factor: The evidence was in approximate balance to support the grant of service connection for both conditions due to their relation to in-service complaints. However, there was not enough evidence to support a compensable rating for allergic rhinitis.
