Granted
The Board granted service connection for hypertension, finding that the evidence supports a chronic disease presumptive service connection under 38 U.S.C. § 1112 and 38 C.F.R. § 3.303(b).
The deciding factor: Resolving reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor, the Board found evidence of chronic symptoms in service and continuous post-service symptoms of hypertension, meeting the criteria for 'chronic disease' presumptive service connection.
