Denied
The Board denied service connection for a hearing loss disorder, sleep apnea disorder, and respiratory disorder (including asthma) as the Veteran does not have a current diagnosis of these conditions. The claims were remanded for further development regarding increased ratings and TDIU.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran had a current disability for any of the claimed conditions, and thus service connection was denied.
