Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a right hip disability and remanded claims for service connection for migraines and contusion left calf. Other claims were denied or dismissed.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support an earlier effective date, increased rating, or new and relevant evidence for the right ankle disability claim; however, there was a positive nexus to service for the right hip disability.
