Denied
The Board denied service connection for left leg amputation and sleep apnea, as well as a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU), due to the lack of evidence linking these conditions to the Veteran's active military service.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran's current disabilities began during or were otherwise related to his active service.
