Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for service connection for acquired psychiatric disabilities and hearing loss, as there was no evidence of current diagnoses close in proximity to or during the pendency of the claims.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran had any current diagnoses of acquired psychiatric disabilities or hearing loss at any time during or approximate to the pendency of the claim.
