Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for depressive disorder, lumbosacral strain, tension headaches, and GAD, but denied service connection for high blood pressure. The Veteran's claims for other disabilities were remanded.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the evidence showing that the Veteran's claimed conditions were incurred in service or related to a service-connected condition.
