Partly granted
Service connection for throat disability, obstructive sleep apnea, acquired psychiatric condition, and heart condition is granted. Service connection for bilateral kidney condition is remanded.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's conditions occurred in the line of duty or were related to active service, with sufficient evidence supporting each claim except for the bilateral kidney condition which requires further investigation.
