Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for neck, left arm, left hip, right hip, and right ankle disabilities. It remanded decisions on the left knee, right knee, right upper extremity cubital tunnel syndrome, left ankle tendonitis, and lumbosacral strain.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the claimed conditions were not manifest in service or within one year of separation and are not otherwise attributable to service.
