The appeal in regard to whether there was clear and unmistakable error (CUE) in rating decisions, dated in April 1948 and March 1960, which reduced the evaluations for anxiety/PTSD, is denied.
The deciding factor: The decision would not have been manifestly different but for any alleged errors due to lack of evidence showing a diagnosis of anxiety disorder/PTSD in March 1960 and degree of impairment being no more than moderate in April 1948.

What this means for you
A final Board denial may be appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims, generally within 120 days of the Board mailing date. A Supplemental Claim with new and relevant evidence is a separate option. Another Higher-Level Review of the Board decision is not available. Check your own notice: this historical decision does not set your deadline.
