The Board denied the veteran's claims for service connection and revision of prior rating decisions on the basis that clear and unmistakable error was not established, and no evidence supported a diagnosis of left or right foot, elbow, or cervical spine disabilities.
The deciding factor: The RO did not commit CUE in its previous determinations as there was sufficient evidence to support the findings that the veteran's conditions pre-existed service and were not aggravated by it. Additionally, no evidence supported a current disability for the claimed left and right foot, elbow, or cervical spine disabilities.
