Denied
The Board denied service connection for chronic cough, a breathing disorder, and a left foot condition as the evidence did not support a finding of a current disability or a link to active service.
The deciding factor: The medical evidence was insufficient to establish a diagnosis or functional impairment related to the claimed conditions during the period on appeal.
