Granted
The Board granted service connection for multiple myeloma, finding it to be related to the Veteran's active duty service in Kuwait.
The deciding factor: The evidence supports that the Veteran's multiple myeloma is etiologically related to his in-service toxic exposure, including presumed exposure to burn pits and other toxins due to his service in Kuwait from May 1991 to September 1991.
