Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a condition manifested by anal pain and functional impairment, but denied an initial rating in excess of 70 percent for PTSD.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms more closely approximated the level associated with a 70 percent rating during the appeal period, rather than total occupational and social impairment required for a 100 percent rating.
