1Opinion of the Court

FARLEY, Judge:

This is an appeal from an August 30,1996, decision of the Board of Veterans’ Appeals (BVA or Board) dismissing the veteran’s claim that a March 1960 rating decision denying service connection for a psychiatric disability was the product of clear and unmistakable error (CUE).
