Partly granted
The Board granted a 20 percent rating for the Veteran's left foot disability, but denied a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported a moderate severe foot injury warranting a 20 percent rating, but did not meet the criteria for a more severe injury or bilateral plantar fasciitis requiring a higher rating.
