Denied
The Board denied service connection for sleep apnea, a right shoulder disability, a right foot disability, and a right knee disability. The claim for an acquired psychiatric disorder was also denied.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record does not support the finding that any of the Veteran's claimed disabilities are related to active-duty service or a service-connected disability.
