Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for tinea pedis and dismissed the claims for tinnitus, multiple sclerosis, neck condition, and low back condition.
The deciding factor: Service connection for tinea pedis was granted after resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran, while the other claims were dismissed due to untimely notice of disagreement or lack of evidence supporting service connection.
