Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for increased ratings and service connection, finding that the evidence did not support higher ratings or service connection.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record did not show sufficient limitation in flexion or pronation to warrant a higher rating under applicable diagnostic codes. The right shoulder condition was remanded for further development.
