Granted
The Board granted service connection for left and right knee scars as secondary to the Veteran's service-connected bilateral knee conditions, and chronic headaches as secondary to his service-connected cervical spine condition.
The deciding factor: Service connection was established based on a nexus between the current disabilities and the Veteran's service-connected conditions.
