Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for bilateral hearing loss as there was no evidence of a current disability that met VA standards.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show auditory thresholds meeting VA criteria for a hearing loss disability, and the Veteran did not have a diagnosis of a current hearing loss disability during or contemporary to the appeal period.
