Denied
The Board denied the motion for revision, on the basis of clear and unmistakable error, of the July 17, 2023, Rating Decision that assigned an effective date of June 9, 2020, for the award of service connection for right middle (long) finger.
The deciding factor: The Board found no manifestly different outcome would have resulted from a clear legal error in not adjudicating the claim for service connection for the right middle finger in the January 16, 1964, Rating Decision.
