Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for service connection for obstructive sleep apnea, finding no evidence that the condition was related to his active military service.
The deciding factor: The VA medical opinion and testimony did not provide persuasive evidence linking the veteran's OSA to his service, and thus service connection is not warranted.
