Denied
The Board denied service connection for prostate cancer because the evidence did not show a relationship between the Veteran's prostate cancer and his military service, including exposure to TCE.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence was persuasively against a relationship between TCE exposure and prostate cancer, relying on medical opinions and the EPA Report.
