Denied
The Board denied service connection for a back injury and left knee strain as there was no evidence of current disabilities related to the Veteran's military service.
The deciding factor: The lack of a current disability, in conjunction with the absence of a nexus between the claimed conditions and the Veteran's service, led to the denial of both claims.
