Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for chronic rhinitis, finding that there was no evidence of a nexus between the condition and his military service.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner opined that the Veteran's chronic rhinitis was less likely than not caused by Agent Orange exposure or other toxic exposures during service, based on a review of medical literature and the Veteran's history.
