Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for service connection for right and left shoulder conditions as new and relevant evidence was not submitted since the April 2005 rating decision.
The deciding factor: The June 2023 statement is essentially duplicative of evidence which was of record at the time of the April 2005 rating decision, thus it does not raise a reasonable possibility of substantiating the claims.
