Partly granted
The veteran's claim for service connection for tinnitus was denied. The claim for a lumbar spine disorder was remanded for further review.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's tinnitus did not have its onset in service and is not related to his active service, while the evidence for the lumbar spine disorder was insufficient to make a decision.
