Denied
The Board denied service connection for bilateral hearing loss disability as the evidence did not support a finding that it had its onset in service or manifested to a compensable degree within the applicable presumptive period.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record does not persuasively weigh in favor of a finding that the Veteran's bilateral hearing loss disability is related to her military service, including in-service noise exposure.
