The Board has determined that the veteran's claims for service connection were not based on clear and unmistakable error (CUE) in the May 17, 1946, and November 20, 1947, rating decisions.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not meet the stringent requirements for a finding of CUE with respect to the RO's decision.
