Partly granted
The Veteran's right and left foot injuries were rated at 10 percent prior to December 16, 2015, but a higher rating of 20 percent was granted for the left foot starting from that date. The claim for TDIU was denied.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's symptoms most closely approximated moderately severe impairment bilaterally as of December 16, 2015, warranting a higher rating under DC 5284.
