Granted
The Board granted service connection for a right knee disability, diagnosed as meniscal tear, osteoarthritis, osteopenia, and resolved medical femoral epicondyle fracture based on aggravation of a pre-existing condition during ACDUTRA.
The deciding factor: The Appellant's pre-existing right knee injury was aggravated beyond its natural progression during her ACDUTRA service, which renders service connection warranted for her currently diagnosed right knee disability and establishes her status as a Veteran.
