Granted
The Board granted service connection for lumbosacral strain based on new and relevant evidence that established a link between the condition and the Veteran's active service.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the submission of new medical evidence linking the Veteran's current lumbosacral strain to an in-service injury, despite previous denials due to lack of sufficient evidence.
