Granted
The Board granted service connection for obstructive sleep apnea, finding that the Veteran's condition had its onset during active-duty service.
The deciding factor: The Board found a present disability, in-service incurrence of symptoms, and a medical nexus between the Veteran's OSA and his military service based on lay statements and medical opinions.
