Granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus based on the Veteran's reported onset during active service and continuous symptoms since separation.
The deciding factor: The Board found the Veteran competent to report his in-service noise exposure and continuous tinnitus symptoms, establishing a nexus between the current disability and service through continuity of symptomatology.
