Granted
The Board granted service connection for allergic rhinitis, finding that the Veteran's condition had its initial onset during her Persian Gulf service and is presumptively service-connected.
The deciding factor: The January 2022 VA examiner opined it was at least as likely as not that the Veteran's current allergic rhinitis condition was incurred in service, and the Board found this opinion supported by the evidence of record.
