Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for the Veteran's right and left knee conditions, but denied service connection for obstructive sleep apnea.
The deciding factor: The evidence was in approximate balance that the Veteran's right and left knee conditions were incurred in service with continuity of symptomology since, while there was no persuasive evidence to support a finding that his OSA was related to toxic exposure risk activities during service.
