Partly granted
The veteran's claim for service connection of a ring finger scar was granted. The claim for a left shoulder disability was remanded for further evaluation.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the veteran's ring finger scar is related to an in-service injury, but more evidence is needed for the left shoulder disability.
