Denied
The Board denied the claims for increased ratings for left knee posttraumatic arthritis and bilateral flat foot disability, finding that the evidence did not support higher ratings.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record does not support a rating in excess of 20 percent for left knee posttraumatic arthritis from April 25, 2014, to December 19, 2019, and does not warrant ratings in excess of 30 percent or higher initial ratings for bilateral flat foot disability.
