Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for a psychiatric disorder, to include PTSD, due to the lack of a current diagnosis. The claim for a low back disability was remanded for further development.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a current diagnosis of PTSD or any other psychiatric disorder, and an examination was not obtained as there was no indication that the Veteran's symptoms may be associated with an in-service event.
