Denied
The Board denied service connection for a back disability as the evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran's current condition was related to his active duty or ACDUTRA service.
The deciding factor: The Board found the Veteran's account of a back injury in service lacked credibility, and there was no credible medical evidence of any back treatment for more than 10 years after the claimed injury.
