The Board denied service connection for both left and right foot hammer toes, stating there was no evidence of a current disability or in-service injury related to these conditions.

The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence of record persuasively weighs against finding that the Veteran has had either condition at any time during or approximate to the pendency of the claim.
