Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for service connection for headaches, finding no evidence of a current disability and noting that the Veteran's headache complaints were not consistent with his service treatment records.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner concluded there was no current diagnosis of headaches, and the Veteran's statements were found to be not credible given the lack of subsequent medical evidence and the long gap between service and the first reported symptoms.
