Granted
The Board granted service connection for right knee arthritis, finding that the Veteran's condition is related to his active duty service.
The deciding factor: The Board found a medical opinion from Dr. J.M., the Veteran's treating orthopedic surgeon, and the Veteran's statements regarding ongoing symptoms since service to be probative in establishing a nexus between the claimed condition and military service.
