Partly granted
The veteran's claim for service connection for tinnitus was granted. The claims for bilateral hearing loss and squamous cell carcinoma were remanded for further evaluation.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence supported a causal relationship between the veteran's tinnitus and his military service, resolving all doubt in his favor.
