Denied
The Board denied service connection for prostate cancer as the evidence did not support a link between the Veteran's condition and his active duty service.
The deciding factor: The November 2023 VA examiner opined that the most likely cause of the veteran's prostate cancer is advanced age at diagnosis, and there was no in-service evidence or current medical opinion linking the condition to service.
