The Board granted service connection for migraine headaches, resolving all doubt in the Veteran's favor and finding that his current disability had its clinical onset during military service.
The deciding factor: Service connection was warranted based on the evidence of record, including positive private opinions showing a connection between the Veteran's diagnosed migraine headaches and his service-connected tinnitus, as well as the Veteran's lay statements indicating onset during service and continued complaints until the present.
