Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, specifically anxiety, as there was no evidence of an in-service incurrence or a nexus to service.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the Veteran's claimed condition was incurred during active duty and is not otherwise related to military service due to lack of in-service evidence and absence of a competent medical opinion linking the disorder to service.
