Granted
The Board granted service connection for status post left total knee arthroplasty, resolving reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor.
The deciding factor: The November 1992 injury during active duty for training resulted in ongoing issues that necessitated a total knee replacement in 2012, as supported by medical opinions and service records.
