Granted
The Board granted service connection for residuals of a right knee meniscal tear to include degenerative joint disease, finding that the Veteran's in-service injury led to his current condition.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported a direct link between the Veteran's in-service meniscal tear and his current right knee arthritis.
