Granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus, finding that the condition manifested to a compensable degree within one year of discharge from service.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's statements regarding onset and recurrence of tinnitus were found credible, supporting the existence of a chronic disease within the presumptive period under 38 C.F.R. § 3.307.
