Denied
The Board denied service connection for a head injury and a compensable initial rating for bilateral hearing loss based on the lack of evidence showing current disabilities.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show a current disability related to the claimed conditions, as there was no competent medical evidence of a current disability or residuals of a head injury, and the Veteran's hearing loss did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating.
