Denied
The Board denied service connection for a right ankle disorder and remanded the issue of service connection for a left hip disorder.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not establish that the Veteran's right ankle disorder was incurred in or caused by active duty service or a service-connected disability, while the left hip disorder required further examination to determine its etiology.
