Granted
The Board granted service connection for obstructive sleep apnea, resolving the benefit of the doubt in favor of the Veteran due to balanced evidence.
The deciding factor: The competing lay and medical evidence is in approximate balance regarding whether the Veteran's current OSA was incurred in or otherwise related to his active-duty service.
