Denied
The Board denied service connection for the veteran's tinnitus disability because the evidence did not show that the tinnitus was caused by or related to his military service.
The deciding factor: The June 2022 VA examination found it less likely than not that the veteran's tinnitus was caused by or the result of his service, and this opinion was considered probative.
