Denied
The Board denied the claims for service connection for sleep apnea and insomnia, finding no evidence of a current disability related to these conditions during the appeal period.
The deciding factor: The August 2023 VA medical opinion found that the Veteran did not have a diagnosis of sleep apnea or insomnia. The evidence failed to support the initial element for service connection, which is the existence of a current disability.
