Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus and remanded claims for service connection for obstructive sleep apnea, right ankle condition, back condition, and left knee condition.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record supports a nexus between the Veteran's tinnitus and his in-service noise exposure. The other claims were either denied or remanded due to insufficient evidence.
