Clinical onset and operational service [34768]
the veteran smoked at least 5 cigarettes per day or the equivalent thereof in other tobacco products for at least 3 years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration. smoking as a causal result of operational service made a material contribution to the Statement of Principles requirements for the clinical onset of the condition under consideration, an aortic disease.Clinical onset and eligible service [34769]
