I sent two years at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, the training artillery training center for the US Army where I was an instructor and was exposed to several hundreds of rounds 105 mm cannon fire. Most of my associates filed hearing disability claims and all were immediately denied. Ear plugs, muff, etc. were non existent. Today wearing approved protection it is mandatory. I also was on the battalion 45 mm pistol team where we spent many hours in practise. I qualified as an expert marksman with the M1 30mm rifle.I have started the claim process but am seeking more data or studies to support my claim.

Appreciate all assitance.
