Denied
The Board denied service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, including PTSD, major depressive disorder, and neurocognitive disorder.
The deciding factor: There was no credible evidence of a current disability related to the claimed in-service stressor or other in-service event, and the Veteran's personality disorder was not considered a disability under VA law.
