Denied
The Board denied service connection for bilateral hearing loss, tinnitus, and PTSD. The Veteran's claims were not supported by sufficient evidence linking these conditions to his military service.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence did not establish a causal relationship between the claimed disabilities and the Veteran's military service.
