Granted
The Board granted service connection for cervical degenerative disc disease, left and right cervical radiculopathy, secondary to the neck disability.
The deciding factor: The evidence was at least in equipoise as to whether the Veteran's neck disability is related to a motor vehicle accident during service, and there is a nexus between the current disabilities and the service-connected condition.
