Granted
The Board granted service connection for bladder cancer, resolving all doubt in the Veteran's favor and finding that his bladder cancer is as likely as not caused by exposure to toxic materials, including radiation, during active service.
The deciding factor: The evidence was at least in approximate balance regarding whether the Veteran's bladder cancer is due to his active service, and the Board resolved all reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor.
