Granted
The Board granted service connection for hypertension, finding that the evidence supports a continuity of symptomatology from active service to the present.
The deciding factor: The Board found an approximate balance of positive and negative evidence regarding the Veteran's claim, and in his favor, granted service connection based on the theory of direct service connection.
