When They Want To Learn What They've Been Doing
Research network works to combat number one disability claim among veterans
From flight line operations to firearms qualification ranges, aircraft maintenance back shops,
vehicle repair shops, civil engineering shops, or even Air Force Research laboratories
where innovative and agile technologies are born, noise brings the potential of
hearing loss if proper personal protective hearing equipment is not available or utilized.
“In fact, Veterans Administration records show that auditory conditions such as hearing loss and
tinnitus are the number one and number two most prevalent disability claim in the VA,”
said Dr. Tanisha Hammill, research coordination branch lead at the Department of
Defense Hearing Center of Excellence in San Antonio. “In terms of number
of claims, this is the most prevalent injury among our veterans, so there is an
obvious need to focus on reducing those injuries among our service members,” she said.

Hearing Loss Now A Military Epidemic
U.S. soldiers and Marines caught in roadside bombings and firefights in Iraq and Afghanistan
are coming home in epidemic numbers with permanent hearing loss and ringing in their ears,
prompting the military to redouble its efforts to protect the troops from noise.
Hearing damage is the No. 1 disability in the fight against terror, according to the Department
of Veterans Affairs, and some experts say the true toll could take decades to become clear.
Discussing hearing problems in veterans
Veterans often suffer brain injuries that impair hearing.
