Granted
The Board granted service connection for bilateral hearing loss, finding that the Veteran's current condition is attributable to his in-service noise exposure.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the Veteran's lay statements regarding onset and continuity of symptomology, which were found to be highly probative and not contradicted by any evidence.
