Granted
The Board granted service connection for sleep apnea, resolving all doubt in the Veteran's favor and finding that his current disability had its onset during active duty.
The deciding factor: The Board found the Veteran's statements regarding the onset of symptoms to be competent and credible, supported by a buddy statement, and resolved all doubt in his favor under the applicable legal standards.
