The Board granted service connection for plantar fasciitis, finding that the evidence supports a finding that the Veteran's diagnosed plantar fasciitis began in service and continued to present.
The deciding factor: The evidence is at least evenly balanced as to whether the Veteran's plantar fasciitis had its onset in service. As the reasonable doubt created by this relative equipoise in the evidence must be resolved in favor of the Veteran, entitlement to service connection for plantar fasciitis is warranted.
