The Board has determined that there is no competent medical evidence of plantar warts of the left foot and thus denied the veteran's claim for service connection.
The deciding factor: There was no diagnosed condition of plantar warts of the left foot in the service records, and the VA examiner found it less likely as not caused by a right foot disorder.
