The Veteran's appeal for additional financial assistance for an automobile or other conveyance and adaptive equipment, including leather passenger seats, power locks, and an in-vehicle emergency response system, has been granted due to the service-connected loss of use of the right foot.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's service-connected loss of use of the right foot results in an inability to ambulate without assistance and requires adaptive equipment for safe travel.
