- Whole decision: DeniedDecember 2008
The veteran's claim for service connection for bilateral knee arthritis was denied due to lack of new and material evidence. The claim for PTSD was also denied as there is no current diagnosis.
- Whole decision: DeniedDecember 2008
The Board denied the veteran's claim for service connection for PTSD, finding that there is no verified stressor or diagnosis of PTSD prior to service entrance and that any current PTSD is not related to military service.
- Whole decision: DeniedDecember 2008
The veteran's combined rating for his service-connected conditions is 60%, which does not meet the criteria for a TDIU based on individual unemployability due to service-connected disabilities.
- Whole decision: Remanded (sent back)December 2008
The Board has remanded the case for a VA psychiatric examination to determine if the veteran's PTSD is related to his in-service stressors, and then to readjudicate the claim.
- Whole decision: GrantedDecember 2008
The Board has determined that the veteran's PTSD is service-connected, with the diagnosis being based on new and material evidence.
- Whole decision: GrantedDecember 2008
The Board has determined that the veteran's PTSD is incurred in active military service, and thus service connection for PTSD is granted.
- Whole decision: Remanded (sent back)December 2008
The Board has remanded the case for further development due to incomplete representation and issues needing additional consideration.
- Whole decision: GrantedDecember 2008
The veteran's service-connected PTSD is rated at 30 percent, and his cold injuries of the bilateral upper and lower extremities are each rated at 20 or 30 percent. The Board has granted a TDIU based on these disabilities.
- Whole decision: Remanded (sent back)December 2008
The Board has determined that further development is necessary to verify the veteran's claimed in-service stressors and diagnose PTSD, as it currently does not have sufficient evidence to support a diagnosis of PTSD based on service connection.
- Whole decision: GrantedDecember 2008
The Board has granted a 50 percent disability rating for PTSD, effective from March 10, 2004. The veteran's PTSD does not meet the criteria for a TDIU as his service-connected condition alone does not render him unemployable.
- Whole decision: Remanded (sent back)December 2008
The Board has remanded the case for further development to address the veteran's claimed stressors and service treatment records.
- Whole decision: Remanded (sent back)December 2008

- Whole decision: Remanded (sent back)December 2008
The Board has remanded the case due to incomplete records and the need for further development.
- Whole decision: Remanded (sent back)December 2008

The VA determined that the veteran does not currently have PTSD and denied her claim for service connection.
- Whole decision: Remanded (sent back)December 2008
The veteran's claim for service connection for PTSD is being remanded due to the need for additional VA treatment records and a video conference hearing.
- Whole decision: DismissedDecember 2008
The Board has dismissed the appeal due to the death of the appellant, and no jurisdiction remains to adjudicate the merits of this claim.
