Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability due to his service-connected disabilities, finding that he was capable of performing the physical and mental acts required by employment.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the Veteran's service-connected disabilities rendered him unable to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation as there was no significant impact from his service-connected conditions on his ability to work in non-exertional roles such as pastoral work and driving.
