The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a total disability rating for compensation based on individual unemployability due to service-connected disabilities, finding that the evidence does not support a conclusion that his service-connected disabilities prevent him from securing or following substantially gainful employment.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not persuasively establish that the Veteran's service-connected disabilities prevented him from performing substantially gainful employment, considering his physical limitations and mental capabilities, education, skills, and work history.
