Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, to include PTSD, MDD, anxiety disorder and alcohol use disorder. The claim for TDIU prior to November 10, 2021 was denied.
The deciding factor: The evidence is at least in relative equipoise on the question of whether the Veteran experienced an MST during service and that her currently diagnosed acquired psychiatric disorders are related to this event.
