Partly granted
The Board denied a rating in excess of 50 percent for PTSD and remanded the claims for an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for right knee disability and entitlement to TDIU.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms did not meet the criteria for a higher rating, but further evidence is needed regarding his right knee instability. The issue of TDIU was raised by the record.
