Partly granted
Service connection for a skin condition, including tinea versicolor, is granted. The claim for service connection for left foot plantar fasciitis as secondary to a service-connected disability is remanded.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's skin condition had onset during service and has been continuous since discharge, resolving reasonable doubt in his favor.
