Granted
The Board granted restoration of service connection for right middle finger laceration scar, prostate cancer surgical scar, erectile dysfunction, PTSD, malignant neoplasms of the prostate with radical prostatectomy and residual urinary incontinence due to agent orange exposure, tinnitus, bilateral hearing loss, and special monthly compensation for loss of use of a creative organ.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the AOJ followed proper due process procedures when proposing severance of service connection, and determined that any error in initially granting service connection was not clear and unmistakable error (CUE).
