Granted
The Board granted service connection for bilateral hearing loss, resolving all doubt in the Veteran's favor and finding that his hearing loss is etiologically related to his period of active service.
The deciding factor: Service connection was granted based on the Veteran's consistent reports of noise exposure during service and the conceded noise exposure by the examiner, along with the current diagnosis of bilateral hearing loss.
