Partly granted
The veteran's claim for a higher disability rating for unspecified trauma and stressor related disorder was denied. The claim for service connection for traumatic brain injury (TBI) was also denied, but the claim for PTSD was remanded for further evaluation.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence did not support a higher disability rating or service connection for TBI, but an inadequate examination led to a remand for the PTSD claim.
