Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for bilateral hearing loss due to a lack of evidence showing a current disability under VA standards.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not demonstrate a diagnosis of hearing loss for VA purposes in either ear, as required by 38 C.F.R. § 3.385.
