Granted
The Board granted service connection for bilateral flat feet, finding that the condition increased in severity during active-duty service and was not due to the natural progression of the disease.
The deciding factor: The presumption of aggravation applied because there is no clear and unmistakable evidence that the worsening was due to the natural progress of the disease.
