Denied
The Board denied service connection for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) due to a lack of credible evidence supporting the claimed in-service stressor.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support the occurrence of the Veteran's claimed in-service stressor, and there was no credible supporting evidence that it occurred.
