Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for a heart disability, including as secondary to PTSD.
The deciding factor: There was no credible evidence of an in-service injury or event, and no probative opinion linking the Veteran's heart condition to his military service or service-connected PTSD.
