Granted
The Board granted service connection for chronic fatigue syndrome on a presumptive basis due to the Veteran's service in the Southwest Asia theater of operations during the Gulf War period.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the Veteran's documented treatment history and the application of 38 C.F.R. § 3.317, which allows for service connection for chronic fatigue syndrome under certain conditions related to Persian Gulf War veterans.
