Partly granted
The Board granted readjudication of the claims for compensation benefits under 38 U.S.C. § 1151 for a neck injury, back injury, and traumatic brain injury due to new and relevant evidence being received, but denied the claims on their merits.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's participation in an essential activity or function of the training, services, or program provided by VA did not proximately cause the disabilities as required under 38 C.F.R. § 3.361(d)(3).
