Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for an earlier effective date for service connection for left and right peripheral artery disease, as there was no claim or written intent to file a claim submitted prior to December 21, 2022.
The deciding factor: The persuasive weight of the evidence did not support an earlier effective date because the Veteran's claims for service connection were only filed on December 21, 2022.
