Granted
The Board granted restoration of a 50 percent rating for PTSD, finding that the reduction was improper as there was no evidence showing improvement in the Veteran's ability to function under ordinary conditions of life and work.
The deciding factor: Improvement in the Veteran's ability to function under ordinary conditions of life and work was not properly established when the rating reduction was implemented.
