The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for a low back disability due to insufficient evidence of a current disability related to his in-service duties.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran had a current low back disability related to his military service, as there was no credible evidence of chronic back problems during service and post-service medical records were silent for any complaints or diagnosis of a back condition.
