Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an evaluation in excess of 50 percent for service-connected posttraumatic headaches, as the criteria for a higher rating were not met.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms did not meet the criteria for a higher schedular rating under Diagnostic Code 8100, and extraschedular consideration was also not warranted.
