The Veteran's claim for service connection for right foot plantar warts was denied, but she received a 10 percent disability rating for her multiple noncompensable disabilities.
The deciding factor: Service connection could not be established as there is no evidence of current right foot plantar warts. The Veteran had two noncompensable service-connected conditions that clearly interfered with normal employability, warranting a 10% combined disability rating.
