Denied
The Board denied service connection for tinnitus because the evidence did not show that the condition originated in service, within one year of separation, or is causally related to service.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's claim was denied due to insufficient evidence showing a current disability, an in-service incurrence or aggravation, and a nexus between the claimed in-service event and the present disability.
