Granted
The Board granted service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, specifically an anxiety disorder, which is etiologically related to the Veteran's service-connected disabilities.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence established a diagnosis of anxiety during the period on appeal and that this condition was related to the Veteran's service-connected bilateral knee strain and tinnitus.
