Denied
The Board denied the motion to revise or reverse on the basis of clear and unmistakable error (CUE) a May 30, 1972 rating decision denying service connection for a lumbar spine disability.
The deciding factor: There was no CUE in the May 30, 1972 rating decision as it correctly applied the law concerning aggravation of preexisting disease and did not misapply the regulation at that time.
