How do servicemen keep their hearing for the next battle?

It might seem after a battle or two one might become deaf from all that loud noise and be unable to be fit for combat. Especially during earlier wars like Vietnam or WW2 when technology wasn't as advanced. These guys had to fight battle after battle and it wonders me how they managed to keep their hearing to listen for orders. How did they not become deaf for the next battle? During Korea, many US soldiers were ww2 vets. How were they fit for combat? They must have gone deaf from the whole war.

    Some have hearing damage, most don't.
