Whole decision: DeniedJanuary 2012
The Board found no evidence of radiation exposure and concluded that the Veteran's skin cancer is not related to service. The knee disability was also not linked to service.
Whole decision: GrantedJanuary 2012
The Veteran is service-connected for multiple conditions and the Board finds that his service-connected disabilities make him unable to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation, warranting a total disability rating based on individual unemployability.
Whole decision: Remanded (sent back)January 2012
The Veteran's claims for service connection for diabetes mellitus type II and skin cancer, both claimed as due to Agent Orange exposure, are being remanded for further development.
