Granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus, resolving reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor.
The deciding factor: The evidence is nearly balanced as to whether the Veteran's current tinnitus is related to his in-service hazardous noise exposure, but the Board assigns some probative weight to the Veteran's reports of tinnitus since service and finds that service connection for tinnitus is warranted.
