Granted
The Board granted service connection for left shoulder arthritis, finding the evidence to be in equipoise as to whether it is related to active duty service.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on probative and competent evidence supporting a nexus between the Veteran's current left shoulder disability and his in-service injury, resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran.
