Partly granted
The Veteran's claim for service connection for pes planus was granted. The claims for plantar fasciitis, left and right hallux valgus, left and right hammertoe deformity, and left and right posterior tibial tendinitis were remanded.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the evidence establishing that the Veteran's current pes planus is etiologically related to his active duty service.
