Denied
The Board dismissed the claim for service connection for a mental condition and denied service connection for bilateral foot, right ankle, left ankle, right shin, left shin, left hip, low back, and right shoulder conditions. The left shoulder condition was remanded.
The deciding factor: The Veteran does not have current diagnoses of the claimed conditions or the VA examiners concluded that there is no nexus between the claimed conditions and service.
