Denied
The Board denied service connection for a right knee disability, left wrist disability, hypertension, headaches, thoracolumbar spine (back) disability, right hand disability (also claimed as tingling), left ankle disability, and right ankle disability.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record weighs persuasively against a finding that the Veteran's claimed disabilities are related to active service or any injury incurred during ACDUTRA or INACDUTRA.
