Partly granted
The Veteran's service-connected disabilities, including prostate cancer residuals and PTSD, render him unable to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation. However, an evaluation in excess of 60 percent for his prostate cancer is not warranted.
The deciding factor: The combined impacts of the Veteran's service-connected disabilities preclude his ability to secure and follow a substantially gainful occupation, but the primary limitation related to his prostate cancer residuals alone would not preclude such employment.
