Denied
The Board denied the veteran's request for a higher disability rating for PTSD, concluding that his symptoms did not warrant a rating above 30%.
The deciding factor: The severity, frequency, and duration of the Veteran's PTSD symptoms did not more closely approximate occupational and social impairment with reduced reliability and productivity.
