Denied
The Board denied service connection for mixed obstructive and restrictive airway disease, finding no medical evidence establishing a link between the Veteran's in-service exposures and his respiratory disability.
The deciding factor: The weight of the evidence is against a finding that the Veteran's mixed obstructive and restrictive airway disease is the result of an in-service event, injury, or occurrence, to include toxic exposure.
