Denied
The Board denied service connection for prostate cancer and diabetes mellitus, type II, due to lack of evidence linking these conditions to the veteran's military service.
The deciding factor: The evidence is against finding that the Veteran's prostate cancer had its onset in service, manifested within one year of service discharge, or is otherwise related to service.
