Denied
The Board denied service connection for PTSD, anxiety disorder, not otherwise specified, and sleep disturbance due to the lack of evidence showing a current disability and an in-service event or injury.
The deciding factor: The Veteran failed to report for scheduled VA examinations, depriving the Board of potentially favorable evidence. Additionally, there was no credible evidence linking any claimed condition to service.
