Denied
The Board denied service connection for both depression and migraine headaches because the Veteran's conditions did not begin during active service and are not related to an in-service injury or disease.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's service treatment records do not reflect complaints of, treatment for, or a diagnosis of either condition during her service.
