Denied
The Board denied service connection for a right leg disability, kidney cancer, including residuals, and bilateral knee disabilities as the evidence did not support that these conditions began during active service or are related to an in-service injury or disease.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record does not persuasively weigh against finding that the Veteran has had any of the claimed conditions at any time during or approximate to the pendency of the claim, and there is no medical nexus between the claimed disabilities and service or a service-connected disability.
