Granted
The veteran is granted an allowance for automobile and adaptive equipment due to the loss of use of his right foot.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's right foot would be equally well served by amputation and use of a prosthetic device, considering his testimony about his inability to move his feet when numb, his medically noted right dropfoot, and significant lower extremity neuropathy.
