Because we were able to submit the bunkmate’s statement with the brief, the Board granted service connection for sleep apnea citing the buddy statement as the reason.
This bunkmate explained that the client was an incredibly loud snorer on the ship demonstrating our client’s service connection. Thus, when building the case for one of our client’s our advocates learned the name and phone number of one of our client’s bunk-mates, called, and obtained a statement. You can receive a VA rating for insomnia by undergoing a Compensation and Pensions (C&P) Examination at a VA clinic, claiming insomnia as a secondary service-connected condition, or proving you had insomnia before your active service and it was aggravated by your time in the military.
Insomnia can cause problems at work or school, and with relationships. It can make it hard to function during the day. Insomnia is when you have a hard time falling or staying asleep. Your partner’s insomnia may interrupt your sleep. For example, because of our experience in the area of sleep apnea, our advocates know that one of the best ways to establish service connection is if the client is able to provide a name of a buddy in service who slept next to our client and can testify as to any of the hallmark sleep apnea symptoms. Insomnia can be a strain on a relationship.
