Denied
The Board denied the veteran's request for an earlier effective date for service connection of bladder cancer. The effective date remains June 25, 2012.
The deciding factor: The earliest application for service connection was received in June 2012, and thus that is the earliest effective date for the Veteran's service connection for bladder cancer.
