Granted
The Board granted the appeals for severance of service connection for neck, left shoulder, and left upper extremity radiculopathy disabilities, as well as entitlement to service connection for headaches.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported that the Veteran's claimed conditions were incurred in service, and there was no clear and unmistakable error in the original grant of service connection.
