The veteran's claims for service connection for various conditions, including post-traumatic stress disorder and a schizoid personality disorder, have been denied. The Board has determined that the evidence does not support a finding of service connection for any of these conditions.

The deciding factor: There is no verified inservice stressor for PTSD, and the veteran's claimed skin and lung disorders are not shown to be related to his period of active military service or exposure to Agent Orange.
