Partly granted
The veteran's claim for service connection for depression was denied. The claims for headaches, back condition, bilateral plantar fasciitis, left elbow condition, left knee condition, and right knee condition were remanded for further development.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record persuasively weighs against finding the Veteran had a diagnosed acquired psychiatric disorder at any time during or approximate to the pendency of the claim.
