Denied
The Board denied service connection for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) as the evidence did not establish that the condition manifested in service or is related to service.
The deciding factor: The VA medical opinions provided were found adequate and probative, indicating that the Veteran's OSA was less likely than not incurred in or caused by an in-service injury, disease, or event.
