Granted
The Board granted service connection for a thyroid disorder, finding that the Veteran's preexisting condition was aggravated by his active service.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's thyroid disorder worsened during his periods of active duty and thus met the criteria for service connection under 38 U.S.C. § 1153.
