Granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus, finding that the Veteran's current condition is related to his in-service noise exposure.
The deciding factor: The Board found the evidence to be in approximate balance and resolved all doubt in favor of the Veteran based on his competent and credible reports of symptoms beginning close to service separation and his MOS indicating moderate to high probability of hazardous noise exposure.
