Retiring…Mil Apnea to FAA?
Broad question, I’m finishing my active duty retirement time and am already 50% seniority at a major airline. I’m thinking about going in and getting checked for apnea on the mil side before I retire. If I do, and it comes back positive, how does that transfer to my AME/current FAA Class 1?

If you need to, then you need to. But I probably wouldn't go fishing for a VA % that's going to cost you way more on the airline side than the VA will pay.

Depends on the AME. Kind of like getting legal advice from a cop... might be used against you later.
Some AMEs (popular with discerning airline pilots) have an off the record policy and will give you excellent advice and officially "forget" about the conversation.
