I have never seen this mentioned here.
In battle how do soldiers protect their hearing during a firefight?
Is it not a consideration?

After working on aircraft carriers for several years, I suffered hearing loss and tinnitus. The Fresno VA sent me to an audiologist whose report confirmed my hearing loss. The VA evaluated my 'disability' at 10%.My exam was performed by a physician who spoke only broken English; was not a citizen, I believe. Following that exam I never heard from the VA again as to the findings or conclusion, so I dropped the matter in disgust.
From what I learned later, what happened with me is typical.
