Granted
The Board granted an effective date of August 25, 2009, for the grant of service connection for PTSD with major depressive disorder single episode, moderate and alcohol use disorder, moderate, in remission.
The deciding factor: The evidentiary record as it stood at the time of the initial denial was sufficient to have verified the Veteran's reported stressor, and reconsideration under paragraph (c)(1) is warranted.
