Denied
The Board denied service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, to include PTSD and unspecified depressive disorder, as there was no current diagnosis of PTSD and insufficient evidence to corroborate the claimed in-service stressors.
The deciding factor: The lack of a current diagnosis of PTSD and insufficient corroboration of the claimed in-service stressors led to the denial of service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder.
