Granted
The Board granted service connection for rhinitis, finding that the Veteran's current condition was incurred during his military service due to exposure to various pollutants.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported a positive nexus between the Veteran's in-service upper respiratory symptoms and his current rhinitis, including credible testimony and an opinion from an ear, nose, and throat specialist.
