Granted
The Board granted service connection for a cervical spine disability, finding that the evidence is at least in approximate balance as to whether it is related to the Veteran's active duty or periods of ACDUTRA.
The deciding factor: The private medical opinion provided substantial probative weight linking the cervical spine disability to the Veteran's military service, and there was no competing medical opinion.
