Denied
The Board denied service connection for treatment purposes only under 38 U.S.C. Chapter 17 for chronic fatigue syndrome and posttraumatic stress disorder due to the Veteran's dishonorable discharge.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the fact that the Veteran's discharge from active duty was considered dishonorable, which barred eligibility for VA benefits under Chapter 17.
