Granted
The Board granted service connection for a left knee disability, as aggravated by military service, and for a right knee disability, which is secondary to the service-connected left knee disability.
The deciding factor: The evidence established that the Veteran's pre-existing left knee condition was permanently worsened during her active duty, leading to current symptoms. Additionally, there is sufficient evidence to show that the right knee disability is due to the service-connected left knee disability.
