Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a cervical spine disability and right upper extremity radiculopathy, but remanded the claim for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) due to insufficient evidence.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the medical opinion that the Veteran's current conditions are related to his service, despite the unavailability of his service treatment records.
