I have hearing aids, my hearing damage comes from the Army as well. My left ear is so bad the hearing aid almost doesn't help. My joy of social events was gone as anywhere there was even a hint of background noise I couldn't tell what anyone was saying and like Ferret I had to combine sound with reading lips to make out anything at all. The hearing aids have made it somewhat better.
You can't wear them riding as even if you could get your helmet on without dislodging them (which I doubt) they would amplify the wind noise.
I have the kind with the external microphone that hangs behind the ear, most people don't notice them - not that I care if they do. Once you get used to having something in your ear you don't even notice them, I don't.
I recommend them.
BTW Josh, I am only 46 but hard living has taken its toll.
