Granted
The Board granted service connection for eczema, finding that the evidence is at least in approximate balance as to whether the Veteran's eczema is related to herbicide agent exposure in service.
The deciding factor: The Board found the private medical opinion more credible than the VA examination opinion and afforded the Veteran the benefit of the doubt.
