Granted
The Veteran's service-connected lower extremity disabilities resulted in the functional loss of use of his feet, warranting grants of special monthly compensation at the rate provided by 38 U.S.C. § 1114(m) for loss of use of the feet.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms, including pain, weakness, and inability to ambulate, sufficiently demonstrated the effective loss of use of his lower extremities as defined by VA regulations.
