Denied
The Board denied service connection for ADHD and an increased rating in excess of 50 percent disabling for the Veteran's acquired psychiatric disorder, finding that the evidence did not support a nexus between the Veteran's current symptoms and his military service.
The deciding factor: The Board found no clear evidence linking the Veteran's ADHD or psychiatric symptoms to his time in service, considering both pre- and post-service medical records and examinations.
