Denied
The Board denied service connection for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as the Veteran did not provide credible evidence of a qualifying in-service stressor.
The deciding factor: The claimed stressors were not corroborated by the evidence, and the Veteran's reported symptoms did not meet the criteria for a diagnosis of PTSD.
