Denied
The Board denied service connection for the Veteran's GERD as there is no evidence to support a causal relationship between the condition and his military service, including exposure to herbicide agents.
The deciding factor: The weight of the probative evidence does not support the Veteran's contentions that his GERD was caused by his military service.
