The Board denied service connection for right shoulder rotator cuff repair and left shoulder strain, finding that the evidence does not support a link between these conditions and the Veteran's active duty service.

The deciding factor: The evidence of record does not persuasively weigh in favor of a finding that the Veteran's current shoulder disabilities began during or are otherwise related to her active service.
