Granted
The Board granted service connection for sleep apnea, finding that the Veteran's sleep apnea had its onset during active service.
The deciding factor: The August 2024 private medical opinion was found to be the most probative evidence of record and supported the conclusion that the Veteran's sleep apnea is directly related to his service.
