The Board denied service connection for an acquired psychiatric disability, to include PTSD, and right and left foot disabilities as there was no evidence of a current diagnosis or persistent symptoms during the pendency of the claims.
The deciding factor: The appellant did not provide sufficient evidence to establish that he had a current diagnosis of an acquired psychiatric disorder, to include PTSD, or any disability of either foot, nor did he provide details of in-service stressors sufficient for corroboration. The Board found no persuasive evidence supporting his claims.
