The Board denied service connection for back condition, depression and memory loss, and migraine disability but granted service connection for a left hip disability based on in-service onset.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show the existence of current disabilities for the back condition, depression and memory loss, and migraine disability. However, there was sufficient evidence to establish that the Veteran had a left hip strain during his active service which caused functional impairment.
