Granted
The Board granted service connection for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), migraine headaches, and obstructive sleep apnea based on new evidence provided by the Veteran's fellow servicemembers.
The deciding factor: The probative evidence of record supports a finding that the Veteran experienced symptoms of each condition during service, which persisted after exiting from service.
