Granted
The Board grants service connection for bilateral lower extremity peripheral neuropathy based on the Veteran's credible reports and a positive nexus opinion from the December 2024 VA examiner.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that the Veteran has a current disability of bilateral lower extremity peripheral neuropathy which began in service, and there is a positive nexus opinion linking the condition to herbicide exposure during his service in Vietnam.
