DeniedPACT Act
The Board denied service connection for major depressive disorder and PTSD, finding no evidence linking these conditions to the veteran's military service.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the lack of a current PTSD diagnosis and no medical nexus between the Veteran's current, diagnosed depression symptoms and his military service.
