Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased ratings for bilateral hearing loss and tinnitus, as well as service connection for prostate cancer.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a higher rating for the Veteran's hearing loss or tinnitus, and his prostate cancer was not related to in-service exposure to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune.
