Granted
The Board granted service connection for right ankle and leg cellulitis, finding that the Veteran's current disability is related to an in-service condition.
The deciding factor: Service connection was granted based on evidence of cellulitis in service and credible lay and medical evidence of cellulitis since service, resolving all reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran.
