Denied
The Board denied service connection for residuals of ingrown toenail and bilateral plantar fasciitis, finding no evidence linking these conditions to the Veteran's active duty service.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show a current diagnosis or treatment for the claimed conditions during service or that they were related to an in-service event, injury, or disease.
