Granted
The Board grants service connection for prostate cancer based on the Veteran's in-service exposure to toxic chemicals, specifically AFFF.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that a causal relationship between the Veteran's prostate cancer and his in-service TERA exposures has been established, with greater probative weight given to the positive nexus opinion provided by Dr. S.B.
