Partly granted
The veteran's claim for service connection for left foot hallux valgus with hammertoe deformity was granted and remanded. Claims for prostate cancer and diabetes mellitus were denied.
The deciding factor: New and relevant evidence warranted readjudication of the left foot condition, while lack of exposure to herbicides led to denial of other claims.
