Denied
The Board denied service connection for migraine headaches, hypertension, a right elbow disability, and a left ear hearing loss disability as the evidence did not support a finding of a nexus between these conditions and the Veteran's military service.
The deciding factor: The evidence persuasively weighed against finding that the Veteran had a current disability related to his claimed conditions during or approximate to the pendency of this claim, and there was no credible evidence supporting a link between the current disabilities and service.
