Granted
The Board granted service connection for bilateral hearing loss, resolving reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor based on his conceded in-service hazardous noise exposure.
The deciding factor: The evidence is at least approximately balanced as to whether the Veteran's bilateral hearing loss was caused by his military service, and entitlement to service connection must be granted.
