Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus and remanded the claims for service connection for a headache disorder and vertigo.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's lay statements, in-service noise exposure, and medical evidence supported the finding of service connection for tinnitus. The claims for headaches and vertigo were remanded due to missing private treatment records and inadequate VA opinions.
