Granted
The Board granted service connection for sleep apnea, resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran and finding a nexus to his in-service exposures to asbestos and aqueous film forming foam.
The deciding factor: Resolving all doubt in the Veteran's favor, the evidence both for and against his claim is at least approximately balanced; therefore, the claim for entitlement to service connection for sleep apnea is hereby granted.
