Granted
The Board granted a 50 percent initial rating for headaches upon reconsideration of the November 1990 rating decision under 38 C.F.R. § 3.156(c).
The deciding factor: The evidence, including STRs from January 1984 to February 1989 and after, supported a finding that service connection for migraine headaches was warranted at the time of the November 1990 rating decision.
