The Board denied service connection for a neck disability, right shoulder disability, insomnia, and erectile dysfunction as there was no evidence of these conditions during or shortly after active duty, and the current conditions are not shown to be related to service.

The deciding factor: The lack of complaints or findings regarding the claimed disabilities during service, combined with the absence of a nexus between the current conditions and service, led to the denial of the claims.
