Denied
The Board denied service connection for a back disability, hypertension, and right and left foot disabilities as the evidence did not support that these conditions were caused by or aggravated by the Veteran's military service.
The deciding factor: The most probative evidence of record showed that the claimed conditions were not present on active duty or until many years thereafter, they were not related to an incident of service origin, and they were not caused or aggravated by his service-connected asthma.
