Granted
The Board granted service connection for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) based on a current diagnosis and credible evidence of an in-service stressor.
The deciding factor: The Veteran met the criteria for PTSD as diagnosed by a licensed psychologist, and there was credible supporting evidence that his fear of hostile military or terrorist activity during active service occurred.
