Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for migraine headaches, which are found to be caused by the Veteran's service-connected posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and denied service connection for bilateral flat feet.
The deciding factor: The evidence is in approximate balance as to whether the Veteran's current migraine headaches disability is caused by his service-connected PTSD, thus granting the claim. For the bilateral flat feet, there was no evidence of in-service aggravation, leading to denial of the claim.
