The Board denied service connection for a bilateral hearing loss disability and a right knee disability, as the evidence did not support that these conditions were incurred in or caused by active service.

The deciding factor: The Board found no persuasive evidence linking the Veteran's current hearing loss and knee disabilities to his period of active service, considering factors such as the absence of relevant symptoms during service and the lack of continuity of symptomatology post-service.
