Denied

The Board denied the Veteran's request to revise a February 2011 rating decision that assigned initial 10 percent ratings for right and left shoulder disabilities, on the basis of clear and unmistakable error (CUE).

The deciding factor: There was no undebatable error in the February 2011 rating decision as it correctly applied statutory and regulatory provisions at the time.
