Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for post-traumatic arthritis in the right ankle and remanded the claim for a left ankle disability.
The deciding factor: Service connection was granted based on evidence showing that the Veteran's current right ankle condition is related to his military service, while further examination is needed for the left ankle due to unclear diagnosis.
