Partly grantedPACT Act
The Board granted service connection for several conditions, including a 10 percent rating for nasal fracture residuals and bilateral hearing loss, tinnitus, dermatosis, lumbosacral disorder, left wrist disorder, left knee disorder, right ankle disorder, PTSD, chronic sinusitis, and IBS. The remaining issues were remanded.
The deciding factor: The Board granted service connection based on credible evidence of in-service exposure to noise and other factors, as well as the onset of symptoms during active service.
