Denied
The Board denied service connection for the veteran's left great toenail avulsion and removal of nail plate, finding that the evidence did not show the condition began during active service or was related to an in-service injury.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's lay statements were found inconsistent and not credible, with no supporting medical evidence linking the condition to service.
