Granted
The Board granted an initial disability rating of 50 percent for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) for the entire period on appeal, but no higher.
The deciding factor: The appellant's symptoms more closely approximated those associated with a 50 percent rating, resulting in occupational and social impairment with reduced reliability and productivity.
