Denied
The Board denied service connection for a right elbow disability and an initial compensable rating for bilateral hearing loss. The increased rating claim for maxillary sinusitis was remanded.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record did not support a finding that the Veteran's current right elbow condition or hearing loss were related to his military service, while the maxillary sinusitis required further examination.
