Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for a rating higher than 10% for both right and left ankle disabilities. The decision was based on the evidence showing that the veteran's ankle disabilities did not meet the criteria for a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The Board found no evidence of marked limitation of motion or functional impairment resulting from the veteran's ankle disabilities.
