Granted
The Board granted service connection for right shoulder osteoarthritis with adhesive capsulitis based on evidence showing the condition began during active military service.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's lay statements and post-service medical records indicating progressively worsening osteoarthritis of the right shoulder supported the claim, leading to a grant of service connection after resolving all doubt in favor of the Veteran.
