Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for bilateral hearing loss, but remanded the claims for prostate cancer and vertigo for further development.
The deciding factor: The evidence was in approximate balance as to whether the Veteran's bilateral hearing loss disability is related to service. The Board found that the Veteran's reports of continuous symptoms since active service are credible and entitled to probative weight.
