Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a fungal condition, to include tinea versicolor and tinea capitis, and a skin condition, to include allergic reactions and hives. The issues of entitlement to service connection for allergic rhinitis and asthma were remanded.
The deciding factor: The evidence established that the Veteran's fungal condition and skin conditions are etiologically related to his service, while the VA opinions regarding allergic rhinitis and asthma were found insufficient.
