Partly granted
The veteran's claim for service connection for a right shoulder disability was dismissed because the condition was already granted. The claim for lower back pain was denied due to lack of evidence linking it to service.
The deciding factor: The Board found no allegation of error regarding the right shoulder disability and no persuasive evidence linking lower back pain to service.
