Denied
The Board denied service connection for an ankle condition, an acquired psychiatric disorder, and hearing loss as the evidence did not support a current disability.
The deciding factor: The April 2023 VA examination found no objective indications of a chronic disability related to the claimed conditions, and the Veteran's symptoms were subjective only.
