Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for a low back disability, finding no evidence of an in-service injury or condition related to his current back pain.
The deciding factor: The Board found that there was no evidence of an in-service incurrence of a low back injury or condition and that the Veteran's own statements did not support a link between his service and his current back disability.
