Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for special monthly compensation based on the need for aid and attendance due to his service-connected disabilities.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran was unable to independently perform activities of daily living or required regular assistance to protect him from hazards or dangers incident to his daily environment.
