Dismissed
The appeal for service connection for left, right knee, and right ankle disabilities was withdrawn by the Veteran, and these claims were dismissed. The appeal for a low back disability is remanded for further development.
The deciding factor: The issues of service connection for bilateral knees and right ankle were withdrawn by the Veteran, while the claim for a low back disability requires additional evidence to be considered.
