Granted
The Board granted service connection for the veteran's right ear hearing loss, finding that the evidence shows a relationship between the disability and an in-service injury.
The deciding factor: The Board applied the benefit-of-the-doubt doctrine due to an approximate balance of positive and negative evidence.
