Granted
The Board granted service connection for bilateral flat foot, based on the aggravation of a pre-existing condition during active duty.
The deciding factor: The evidence was at least in equipoise as to whether the Veteran's pre-existing bilateral flat foot increased in severity during service, and there is insufficient evidence to rebut the presumption of aggravation.
