Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for bilateral hearing loss and remanded claims for cervical spine, left shoulder, wrist, hip, knee, and upper extremity nerve disabilities due to insufficient evidence.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding of current disability or in-service incurrence for the claimed conditions, except for the cervical spine condition which requires further development through examination.
