Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for bilateral pes planus based on aggravation of a preexisting disability, but denied service connection for right and left knee disabilities.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed that the Veteran's preexisting bilateral pes planus was aggravated by active service, while his current right and left knee disabilities were not related to service.
