Granted
The veteran's claim for service connection for a cervical spine disability, including as secondary to a service-connected lumbar spine disability, has been granted.
The deciding factor: The Board resolved reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor, finding that his currently diagnosed cervical spine disability is related to his service-connected lumbar spine disability.
