Partly granted
The Board granted readjudication of the claims for service connection for PTSD and depression, but denied service connection for DMII, hypertension, prostate cancer, sleep apnea, impotence, peripheral neuropathy, and bilateral claudication/superficial femoral artery disease.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran's claimed disabilities were related to his military service, including exposure to herbicides in Korea.
