Granted
The Board granted service connection for sleep apnea, finding that the evidence is at least in approximate balance regarding whether the Veteran's diagnosed OSA had its onset in service.
The deciding factor: The Board found the Veteran's assertions credible and concluded that his symptoms of OSA began during his service and continued to the present.
