ORDER

2Per curiam

The appellant appeals an August 9, 1996, decision of the Board of Veterans’ Appeals (BVA or Board) which found, inter alia, that his service-connected post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) warranted a 50% disability rating. On appeal, the appellant argues that a higher rating should have been assigned and seeks reversal of the Board’s decision with instructions to award a total disability rating. The appellant’s brief does not address the remaining eight issues decided by the Board; accordingly, the Court deems those claims abandoned. Bucklinger v. Brown, 5 Vet.App. 435 (1993).
