Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) and special monthly compensation under 38 U.S.C. § 1114(s).
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the Veteran was unable to secure or follow substantially gainful employment due to his service-connected disabilities.
