Granted
The Board granted service connection for behavioral residuals of a TBI, finding the evidence is at least in approximate balance that the Veteran's current TBI disability is related to his in-service fall.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner provided an addendum opinion indicating that the Veteran's behavioral issues more likely than not are a residual of his in-service TBI.
