Granted
The Board granted service connection for an acquired psychiatric disability other than PTSD, to include generalized anxiety disorder and major depressive disorder, and a skin disability, to include acne, dermatosis, seborrheic dermatitis, and a follicular cyst.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's claims were supported by evidence of in-service treatment for both conditions and post-service continuity of symptoms, as well as medical opinions linking the current disabilities to service.
