Denied
The Board denied service connection for various disabilities, including nerve and psychiatric conditions, as well as hypertension, finding no evidence of a direct link to the Veteran's military service.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that any of the claimed conditions were related to the Veteran's military service, including exposure to herbicides in Korea.
