Granted
The Board granted service connection for a neck disability, finding that the evidence is in approximate balance as to whether the Veteran's current neck condition was incurred during her active duty service.
The deciding factor: The medical and lay evidence of record is in approximate balance as to whether the Veteran's neck disability manifested while in service and has continued to the present. The Board resolved reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran, granting service connection for a neck disability on a direct basis.
