Granted
The veteran's service connection for lumbosacral strain, claimed as a back condition, has been granted. The decision is based on the Veteran's current disability being related to in-service back pain.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's statements and service treatment records showed chronicity of back pain during service, establishing a nexus between the in-service injury and the current disability.
