Granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus, attributing it to the Veteran's military service due to in-service acoustic trauma.
The deciding factor: The evidence is at least in approximate balance that it is the result of military service, and the lay evidence supports a finding of continuity of symptomatology since discharge from service.
