Partly granted
The veteran's request for a higher disability rating for left knee strain was denied. The claims for service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder and right knee strain were remanded.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a higher rating for the left knee strain, but further evaluation is needed for the other conditions.
