Granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus, resolving reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor and finding that his tinnitus is related to active service.
The deciding factor: The November 18, 2023 VA examiner's opinion was given great probative weight due to its well-reasoned medical rationale, current studies, and thorough review of the Veteran's medical history and claims file.
