Denied
The Board denied service connection for sleep apnea because the evidence did not show a link between the veteran's service and the condition.
The deciding factor: The Board found no evidence of an in-service incident or injury linked to the current disorder, and the Veteran's statements alone were not sufficient to establish continuity of symptoms.
