Partly granted
The Veteran's service connection claim for an acquired psychiatric disorder, diagnosed as other specified trauma and stressor related disorder, was granted. Claims for bilateral flatfeet, right foot pain, and left foot pain were denied.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported a nexus between the in-service event and the Veteran's current acquired psychiatric disorder, but not for the claimed foot conditions.
