Granted
The Board granted service connection for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) based on the evidence showing that OSA manifested during active service.
The deciding factor: The evidence was at least in equipoise as to whether obstructive sleep apnea manifested during active service, and the Veteran's lay statements provided credible support for this claim.
