Granted
The Board granted a 70 percent initial rating for PTSD, but not higher, for the entire period on appeal.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's PTSD resulted in occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas, such as work, school, and family relations, which warranted a 70 percent rating under the General Rating Formula.
