Denied
The Board denied service connection for a cervical spine disorder as it was not shown to be causally or etiologically related to the appellant's period of ACDUTRA.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the appellant's current cervical spine disorder was incurred during his period of ACDUTRA, given the lack of contemporaneous medical records and the appellant's inconsistent statements regarding the onset of symptoms.
