The Board granted service connection for essential tremors, finding the evidence was at least in equipoise as to whether the appellant's current essential tremors had onset during active service.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed a current diagnosis of essential tremors and an in-service incident where the appellant was diagnosed with essential tremors after returning from deployment. The Board found that the evidence was at least in equipoise regarding the onset of the condition during active service.
