Dismissed
The appeal for service connection for PTSD was dismissed as the grant of service connection for unspecified depressive disorder represents a full grant of the benefit sought.
The deciding factor: The claim for service connection for PTSD has been rendered moot by the grant of service connection for unspecified depressive disorder, and there is no 'controversy' or 'issue' currently before the Board.
