Dismissed
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for service connection for bilateral pes planus and lumbosacral strain as the appeal was not timely filed.
The deciding factor: The appeal was not timely filed because it was received more than one year after the rating decision, and no good cause was shown to extend the time limit.
