Denied
The Board denied service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, including PTSD, as there was no current diagnosis and the Veteran did not cooperate with a VA examination.
The deciding factor: No current disability was found due to lack of cooperation during the examination and insufficient evidence of a relevant in-service event or post-service medical records indicating a chronic condition.
