Granted
The Board granted service connection for bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome based on the evidence showing in-service onset of the condition.
The deciding factor: Service connection was granted due to the Veteran's competent and credible lay statements regarding the onset of wrist pain during service, which is sufficient under 38 C.F.R. § 3.303(a).
