Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for service connection for hypertension, finding no evidence of a nexus between the condition and either in-service events or his service-connected disabilities.
The deciding factor: The medical opinions provided did not establish a sufficient link between the Veteran's hypertension and either his service-connected conditions or toxic exposure during service.
