Denied
The Board denied service connection for a left ankle disorder and a left foot disorder, as there is no evidence of a current disability. The psychiatric disorder claim was remanded due to an incomplete VA examination.
The deciding factor: The lack of probative evidence of a current disability in the record led to the denial of the claims for service connection for a left ankle disorder and a left foot disorder. For the psychiatric disorder, further clarification is needed regarding the Veteran's symptoms reported after the initial examination.
