Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for a higher disability rating for PTSD, finding that the evidence did not support a rating greater than 70 percent.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms were found to be fully contemplated in the assigned 70 percent evaluation and did not more nearly approximate the criteria for a 100 percent rating.
