Granted
The Board granted service connection for left ankle tendonitis, finding that the Veteran's current disability began during active service.
The deciding factor: The Board concluded that there is a probative opinion in favor of the claim and evidence supporting the Veteran's lay statements, thus granting service connection based on direct incurrence.
