Granted

The Veteran's service-connected disabilities, including bilateral hearing loss and musculoskeletal issues, render him unable to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation.

The deciding factor: The Veteran's service-connected disabilities significantly impair his ability to communicate and perform physical tasks required by employment, making it impossible for him to work in any capacity.
