The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms of occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas due to his service-connected PTSD warranted a 70 percent rating. Additionally, the Veteran is unable to obtain or retain substantially gainful employment due to his service-connected PTSD.
