Denied
The Board denied an increased rating for PTSD, maintaining a 70 percent disability rating from June 28, 2021, to May 31, 2023, and reducing it to 50 percent effective June 1, 2023.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record did not reflect that the Veteran's PTSD had manifested to a level warranting a rating in excess of 70 percent.
