Granted
The Board granted service connection for a skin condition, presumptively related to the Veteran's Gulf War service.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's skin condition began during active service in Southwest Asia and is presumed to be related to his Gulf War service due to the qualifying service and symptoms consistent with a medically unexplained chronic multisymptom illness (MUCMI).
