Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for sleep apnea and a compensable rating for bronchitis, but granted service connection for asthma.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran's sleep apnea or bronchitis was related to his military service. However, there was sufficient evidence of a current diagnosis of asthma to grant service connection.
