Granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus, resolving reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor.
The deciding factor: The evidence is at least in approximate balance as to whether the Veteran's tinnitus was caused by in-service hazardous noise exposure. As any reasonable doubt created must be resolved in favor of the Veteran, entitlement to service connection for tinnitus is granted.
