Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for service connection for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and a disability rating in excess of 50 percent for generalized anxiety disorder.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a diagnosis of PTSD, and the Veteran's symptoms were more closely aligned with a diagnosis of generalized anxiety disorder.
