Granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus, resolving reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed a current disability of tinnitus and in-service exposure to loud noise, with symptoms chronic during and after service, warranting presumptive service connection under 38 U.S.C. § 1112 and 38 C.F.R. § 3.303(b).
