Denied
The Board denied service connection for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and remanded the claim for an acquired psychological disorder, to include major depressive disorder (MDD), as there was insufficient evidence of record to determine if the Veteran's current psychiatric conditions were related to his military service.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not persuasively establish a diagnosis of PTSD or a link between any diagnosed condition and the Veteran's military service.
