Denied
The Board denied service connection for the veteran's right knee disability, finding no evidence that it was incurred during or related to his active service.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's service treatment records are silent for any complaints, findings, or treatment for a right knee disability, and post-service treatment records do not document a right knee disability for many decades following separation from service.
