Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for a right knee disability due to insufficient evidence of an in-service injury, disease, or event affecting his right knee and no relationship between his current right knee musculoskeletal disability and active service.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the lack of evidence supporting an in-service incurrence or aggravation of a right knee disability and the medical opinion that the Veteran's current condition is more likely related to his civilian employment after separation from service.
