Granted
The Board granted service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, to include PTSD, anxiety, or depression, based on credible evidence that the Veteran's claimed in-service stressor occurred.
The deciding factor: The January 2023 VA examiner opined that it was at least as likely as not that the Veteran's PTSD is due to a personal assault or MST that occurred during her military service.
