Denied
The Board denied service connection for left and right knee disabilities, finding no evidence of a nexus between the Veteran's in-service injuries and his current osteoarthritis.
The deciding factor: The medical opinions found against a positive nexus due to the lack of continuity of symptomatology and the presence of a temporal gap between service and the onset of symptoms.
