Granted
The Board granted service connection for a low back disability, finding it at least as likely as not that the Veteran's condition was incurred in or caused by service.
The deciding factor: The Board found the Veteran's competent and credible lay evidence sufficient to establish both an in-service incurrence and a nexus between the in-service injury and current condition.
