New decisions are added every week, and older years are actively being backfilled — a year that looks thin or missing here (especially 2011–2017) is a gap in our library, not in the Board’s decisions.

GrantedJanuary 2008
The Board has determined that new and material evidence has been submitted to reopen the veteran's claims for bilateral hearing loss and tinnitus. Bilateral hearing loss and tinnitus are found to be incurred during active duty.
DeniedJanuary 2008
The Board has determined that the veteran does not have bilateral hearing loss or tinnitus as a result of his service, and therefore denied both claims.
DeniedJanuary 2008
The veteran's service-connected disabilities alone do not render him so helpless as to be unable to care for himself, protect himself from the hazards or dangers incident to his environment, or attend to the needs of nature. The Board finds that the preponderance of the probative evidence is against the veteran's claim for entitlement to SMC.
