Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for sleep apnea, headaches, and a heart condition, finding that these conditions are as likely as not related to the Veteran's active-duty service.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record supports a nexus between the claimed disabilities and the Veteran's period of service, including through conceded Toxic Exposure Risk Activities (TERAs).
