Denied
The Board denied service connection for a thyroid disorder as there was no evidence that the condition was incurred in or caused by active service.
The deciding factor: The record did not include probative findings that the thyroid disorder was incurred until years after the Veteran's initial period of active service, and an examiner determined it was not related to active service.
