Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for bilateral hearing loss and remanded the claim for a left knee condition due to insufficient evidence.
The deciding factor: The April 2023 VA examination did not meet the criteria for a hearing loss disability, and there was no clear and unmistakable evidence of aggravation for the left knee condition during service.
