Granted
The veteran's service connection claim for a left knee disability was granted based on evidence of an in-service event causing the disability.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's testimony and receipt of the Purple Heart established a causal relationship between his in-service injury and his current left knee disability.
