Denied

The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for a rating in excess of 70 percent for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), finding that the evidence did not support a higher rating.

The deciding factor: The severity, frequency, and duration of the Veteran's symptoms were found to be less severe than those contemplated by a 100 percent rating, and thus a rating in excess of 70 percent was not warranted.
