Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for prostate cancer, finding that the evidence does not support a causal relationship between the current disability and the Veteran's military service.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner opined that the Veteran's prostate cancer was less likely than not caused by his toxic exposure risk activity during service, and there is no other medical opinion linking the condition to service.
