Denied
The Board denied service connection for a right-hand pinky finger disability, finding that the evidence does not support a nexus between the Veteran's current condition and his military service.
The deciding factor: The VA examiners' medical opinions were based on an accurate set of facts and found no chronicity or continuous symptoms since service, leading to a denial of service connection.
