Denied
The Board denied service connection for a back disorder as the evidence does not support that it began in or is related to service.
The deciding factor: The weight of the evidence shows the Veteran's back pain manifested many years after service and is due to other causes, such as pregnancy, caring for six children, prolonged driving, and her job.
