Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for left ear hearing loss, finding that the evidence did not support a causal relationship between the condition and his active service.
The deciding factor: The VA examiners' opinions found no evidence of a causal relationship between the Veteran's left ear hearing loss and his active service, including any military noise exposure.
