Granted
The Board granted service connection for obstructive sleep apnea, finding it related to toxic exposures during the Veteran's active military service.
The deciding factor: The August 2024 VA examination provided an opinion that OSA was at least as likely as not incurred in or caused by toxic exposures in service, and there is no opposing evidence of record.
