Granted
The Board granted service connection for a lung condition, to include pulmonary vasculature-lungs, sarcoidosis of lung with sarcoidosis of lymph nodes, mild obstructive lung disease, and multiple pulmonary masses/nodules with bilateral hilar and mediastinal lymphadenopathy.
The deciding factor: Resolving reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor, his current lung condition is at least as likely as not related to active military service.
