Denied
The Board denied service connection for sleep apnea as the evidence did not support a finding that it began during active service or is related to an in-service injury, event, or disease.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record does not persuasively weigh in favor of a finding that sleep apnea began during active service or is otherwise related to an in-service injury, event, or disease.
