Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus but denied it for bilateral hearing loss. The claims for other conditions were remanded.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the presence of a current disability and reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran regarding his tinnitus, while there was no evidence of a current diagnosis of hearing loss.
