Granted
The veteran's claim for service connection of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is granted. The Board found that the GAD was causally related to an in-service event.
The deciding factor: The Board based its decision on a positive February 2023 VA medical opinion that linked the veteran's GAD to stressful experiences during military service.
