Denied
The Board denied service connection for hypertension as there is no evidence showing the condition manifested during or within a year of service, and it is not related to any in-service injury, event, or disease.
The deciding factor: The persuasive evidence does not show that the Veteran's hypertension manifested during service or within a year after separation from service, and any current hypertension is not shown to be related to his service.
