Granted
The Board granted an earlier effective date of February 23, 2022, for the award of service connection for chronic fatigue syndrome.
The deciding factor: The evidence supports that the Veteran had symptoms and manifestations of CFS as early as when he initiated his claim for CFS, thus resolving reasonable doubt in favor of an earlier effective date.
