Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) as his service-connected disabilities, while severe, did not prevent him from obtaining or retaining substantially gainful employment.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed that the Veteran could perform work in non-noisy environments and that his service-connected conditions, though significant, did not preclude all forms of employment.
