Granted
The Board granted service connection for obstructive sleep apnea, resolving any reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor and finding that his symptoms began during active military service.
The deciding factor: The evidence supports a finding of chronic symptoms during service and continuous symptoms since service, with lay statements describing snoring and gasping for air at night while sleeping.
