Denied
The Board denied service connection for a left and right ankle condition due to the lack of evidence showing current diagnoses, while remanding the claim for bilateral hearing loss for further medical evaluation.
The deciding factor: The weight of the evidence does not support a finding of a current disability or a link between the claimed conditions and service.
