The Board denied service connection for a left ankle disability, low back disability, right knee disability, and left knee disability as the evidence did not support that these conditions were incurred in or aggravated by active service.

The deciding factor: The Veteran's claims were denied due to lack of credible evidence supporting an in-service injury or onset of symptoms related to her claimed disabilities, and the absence of continuity of symptomatology since separation from service.
