It may work out as my Desert Storm physical diagnosed sleep apnea shortly after the Gulf War. I started my military career as a scout in the infantry on active duty in February, 1966 and retired 1 Feb 2007 as a Colonel in the Army Reserve. It was a long career, but very rewarding as I got to meet and work with the best people in the world. Take Care!
Hey GI6607 no need to prove service conection of apnea if recorded in military durning physical that would be your proof and I believe it's rated at 50% contact your local dav rep (I lost trust in American Leigon) and they will help you thru the process good luck with all!!
