Denied
The Board denied service connection for lung cancer and dismissed the appeal for a lower back disorder due to duplicative filings.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran's lung cancer was related to his active duty service, and there were issues of duplicative appeals regarding the lower back disorder.
