Denied
The Board denied service connection for a left knee disability, to include arthritis, as the evidence does not support a finding that it is related to active service or secondary to service-connected conditions.
The deciding factor: The most persuasive evidence of record shows no in-service onset of a left knee disability and no direct relationship between the Veteran's left knee disability and his service-connected right knee disability or right fibula fracture with ankle pain.
