Granted
The Board granted service connection for sleep apnea, resolving reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor.
The deciding factor: The evidence is approximately evenly balanced as to whether the Veteran's sleep apnea had its onset during his active duty service. As the reasonable doubt created by this relative equipoise in the evidence must be resolved in favor of the Veteran, entitlement to service connection for sleep apnea is warranted.
