Granted
The Board granted service connection for prostate cancer residuals and cirrhosis, both presumed to be related to exposure to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune.
The deciding factor: The evidence was found to be in equipoise as to the relationship between the Veteran's current conditions and exposure to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune, leading to a grant of service connection after resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran.
