GrantedPACT Act
The Board granted service connection for obstructive sleep apnea, finding that the Veteran's sleep apnea had its onset during his active service in the Persian Gulf.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported the Veteran's claim as he was competent to report on his symptoms and his wife corroborated these reports with her observations of his sleep issues during service.
