Denied

The deciding factor: The evidence did not establish that the correct facts were not before the RO at the time of the decisions or that the RO incorrectly applied applicable statutory and regulatory provisions.

Claimed conditions: right shoulder condition
How they argued it: Direct service connection
Exposure basis: None

Decision date: November 10, 2025
