Granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus based on the Veteran's credible report of in-service noise exposure and continuous symptoms since service.
The deciding factor: The evidence is at least in equipoise on whether the Veteran experienced symptoms of tinnitus in service and had continuous symptoms of tinnitus since service separation, and the Board finds his statements to be credible.
