The veteran's claims for service connection for psychiatric disability and right ankle disability were denied. The claim for left shoulder disability was remanded for further examination.

The deciding factor: The Board found no evidence of a current disability or in-service injury for the psychiatric and right ankle claims, and remanded the left shoulder claim due to an inadequate VA examination.
