110 vetted Board decisions in 2008
The Board denied service connection for hepatitis C and an acquired psychiatric disability, as there was no evidence of a chronic condition during service or within one year after discharge, nor any evidence linking the conditions to service.
The Board denied the veteran's claims for service connection for a back disorder and hepatitis C, as there was no evidence of an in-service injury or disease, continuous post-service symptoms, or a relationship between the current disabilities and active service.
The Board found that the veteran's hepatitis C and alcohol-related cirrhosis were not related to his service or any incident therein.
The appeal is remanded to the RO for further development and readjudication of the veteran's claims.
The veteran's hepatitis B and C were denied as they were directly associated with intravenous drug use, without credible evidence of a non-willful misconduct cause.
