Granted
The Board granted service connection for a respiratory disorder associated with TERA participation, as the Veteran's claim was favorably adjudicated by the AOJ without clear and unmistakable error.
The deciding factor: Service connection was granted based on the favorable findings of the AOJ regarding in-service asbestos exposure and its relationship to the Veteran's current respiratory condition, which cannot be rebutted absent evidence of clear and unmistakable error.
