The Board denied the Veteran's claim for VR&E benefits, finding that he did not have an employment handicap and was therefore not in need of rehabilitation.
The deciding factor: The VRC determined that the Veteran had overcome any vocational impairments to employability due to his service-connected disabilities, and his current education, training, and work experience allowed him to obtain suitable employment.
