Denied
The Board denied service connection for obstructive sleep apnea and diabetes mellitus type 2 as there is no evidence of a relationship between the current disabilities and the Veteran's active military service.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not establish that the Veteran's current disabilities had their onset in service or are related to any incident during his active duty, including toxic exposure.
