Granted
The Board granted service connection for bilateral pes planus, finding that the Veteran's condition was related to his military service.
The deciding factor: The presumption of soundness applied, and VA did not show with clear and unmistakable evidence that the Veteran's bilateral pes planus was not aggravated by service.
