Granted
The Veteran's PTSD is service-connected due to his military service in Vietnam. The Board resolved doubt in the Veteran's favor.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the positive evidence for the claim was no less persuasive than the negative evidence, and thus applied the benefit of the doubt doctrine.
