Partly granted
The veteran's claim for service connection for right groin pain was denied, but the claim for tinnitus was granted.
The deciding factor: The decision on right groin pain was based on lack of evidence and failure to report for a VA examination; the decision on tinnitus was based on credible testimony and service treatment records.
