Granted
The Board granted service connection for tension headaches, finding that the Veteran's symptoms began during active service and have continued since.
The deciding factor: The evidence reflects headache complaints during service, ongoing symptoms in the years thereafter, competent lay statements endorsing headaches since service, and a current, diagnosed disability with corresponding symptoms.
