The Board granted service connection for erectile dysfunction, finding that the condition began during active service.
The deciding factor: The Board found a present disability, in-service incurrence, and a causal relationship between the current condition and symptoms experienced during service, particularly considering the proximity of diagnosis to separation from active duty.
