Granted
The Board granted service connection for an acquired psychiatric condition diagnosed as other specified trauma and stressor related disorder and major depressive disorder, finding the Veteran's symptoms are related to his military service.
The deciding factor: The June 2024 outside provider's opinion considered the Veteran's medical history and set forth all pertinent findings, concluding that the current disability is at least as likely as not due to military service.
