Denied
The Board denied service connection for left hip strain, right hip strain, cervical strain, kidney stones, right elbow tendonitis, and left knee strain as the evidence did not support a finding that these conditions were incurred in or caused by active military service.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record persuasively weighs against finding that the Veteran's claimed conditions had their onset during military service, within a year after military service, or are otherwise causally related to his active military service.
