Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an earlier effective date for service connection for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) due to clear and unmistakable error (CUE).
The deciding factor: There was no clear and unmistakable error in the prior rating decisions that denied or granted service connection for PTSD, as the correct facts were before the adjudicator and the statutory-regulatory provisions were correctly applied.
