Denied
The Board denied service connection for right knee and heel disabilities as they were not shown to be causally or etiologically related to any event, injury, or disease in service and are not caused or aggravated by the service-connected left knee disabilities.
The deciding factor: The weight of the probative evidence is against a finding that the Veteran's right knee and heel disabilities are related to an event, injury, or disease in service and are not caused or aggravated by the service-connected left knee disabilities.
