Summary:
It is a well established principle that, when there is a contradictory statement, the initial statement must be given more weight than the subsequent statement. The Umpire concluded that the issue of physical requirements, which the Board ruled was justification to leave employment, was an after-the-fact issue and ought not to have been given undue weight.
