Denied
The Board denied service connection for bilateral hearing loss and tinnitus due to a lack of evidence showing current disabilities and no in-service incurrence or aggravation.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show the Veteran had a current disability of hearing loss or tinnitus, nor was there any indication that these conditions were related to his military service.
