Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a low back disability, finding that the Veteran's pain with functional impairment is related to his active duty service. The hypertension claim was remanded for further development.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the evidence of record showing complaints and treatment during service, as well as continuity of symptoms post-service, which supported a direct link to service.
