Streamed long before the news broke about Hunter's laptop. Hunter Biden sex tapes coming soon

I had a single episode of atrial fibrillation earlier this year that was caused by low magnesium and dehydration. Labs and ekg confirmed that a-fib went away, and I had low magnesium. I was on medication for a month, but was taken off under the direction of my cardiologist. I otherwise have a healthy heart, as confirmed by an ultrasound of my heart. I haven't had an episode since, and I just go back for a checkup in about a month. I know I'll have to disclose it to the FAA, but would the AF look at this physical? Any advice for moving forward would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. I already messaged stuckindayton, and he said he wasn't experienced in it.

We dont have a lot of moral high ground on this though considering we did the same thing times 1000X in the 1980s.

BLM would be taken seriously if they would disavow the lies. Take Michael Brown, the gentle giant, for instance. Most BLM proponents still believe Hands Up/Don't Shoot, and choose to not believe the forensics. Forensics prove that every element of the initial story was a lie; that his hands were up, he was running away, etc. Not to mention his friend went on live TV and lied, then lied to the FBI and never got prosecuted.
The other issue is that if you look at FBI crime statistics, you'll see that there's a group that's responsible for a disproportionate amount of violent crime compared to other groups. When you commit violent crimes, police respond differently than if you didn't commit a violent crime. That will, in turn, result in more police shootings.
Sorry, the whole movement is BS.

Keep pushing.
Retake the AFOQT if you can and find another recruiter to work with. Get your work situation straightened out...assume your potential squadron is going to call your manager and ask about you...you'd want nothing short of a glowing review, right?
As others have suggested, consider reconsidering only wanting fighters.
Is it really worth it to risk losing the 99 pilot score?

Fire your recruiter.

Anyone have gouge on the 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron (Reserves) at Keesler AFB? They fly the WC-130J. Wondering if they hire off the street for UPT. Did some research for flying opportunities and didn’t really come up with anything.
They do.

I know a LOT of guys that have enlisted to get to know pilots and get a pilot slot. Of those I know of 3 that actually got the slot (there are more, I just don't know them). I do know at least 20 crew chiefs in my unit that joined with that plan then life got in the way.
Remember, after tech school you'd still have OJT then you have CDC's and all your new tech stuff. You could end up working in phase, if you are a part timer you'd only see guys on weekends, etc. It takes a lot more time to get to know guys as a crew chief than you'd think.
I definitely recommend holding off and rushing (unless you are totally stuck on your hometown unit like N730 said). What are your other scores? They all matter, not just pilot/nav.
Please elaborate on the commitment for enlisting. I assume you can't go to OTS until your enlistment is is over?

I read a theory that because Iran's economy is doing so poorly, striking Saudi oil facilities and causing an oil crisis would encourage countries to buy Iranian oil in the face of sanctions.

There are actually a bunch of exercises to help build the supporting muscles of the neck. Most of them you can find on the interwebs
I know. I’m wondering if he trained in an optimal/supervised manner or if it was unsupervised.
See attached study:

Those machines USED to be in every fighter squadron, all given away in the mid 2000’s. We discovered they were injuring our necks worse than the jet.
Did you have a set regimen, or was it do whatever you wanted?
-
If you don't mind me asking, were any of you doing resistance training on your neck while flying?

Hey, I’m pretty sure this is what you’re looking for: http://access.afpc.af.mil/pcsmdmz/AFOQTPrepMaterials.html
It would be prudent to buy guide from Amazon. I used the Trivium book. I’ve taken the GRE, so I was already pretty familiar with the math and English. The GRE is harder, so it may be good practice.

I read back in 2012ish people were using the ketosis defense, that people were saying they were in ketosis. Ketosis makes your BAC reading abnormally high. You would be surprised at the ways the body works....

My piece of advice is to find a place outside of meps to test. It’s a lot easier. Each base is different, but I know Eglin AFB just has you fill out a form with your name, test date, branch, and which test you want to take. They will get you on base if you don’t have an ID.

I've worked on foreign FMS projects before and being blindsided by this comes as zero surprise to me. I wouldn't be surprised if Turkey knew the S400 could become a problem and tried to keep it a secret as long as possible to prevent endangering their F-35 buy. Queen Elizabeth once said states don't have friends, only interest. When you look through the world in that lense you realize how fragile alliances really are.
I can't help but wonder what would be the reason Turkey would get Russian S-400's. Why would you do that unless you were searching for vulnerabilities with the F-35? I can't help but speculate that that may have been Russia's plan all along.
It's in Russia interests to befriend Turkey because:
1) Bosporus Straight access
2) They know Turkey has growing anti-western sentiment, and is vulnerable to turn against NATO if the conditions are right
3) They want to remove nuclear assets if possible
Geopolitics is such an interesting topic....

The WP folks only know what you tell them. I would have kept it to my self unless they somehow got their hands on your records from 10 yrs ago... They are super helpful based on my experience there last year and will try to help to get you in and out as fast as possible. Good luck
What if you were a dependent on Tricare at the time of a concussion/treatment? I didn't lose consciousness, so it was relatively minor. I was under the impression that they can get anything if you were on Tricare at the time.

Given that the primary concern here seems to be that the Russians would have been able to improve their systems if Turkey had operated the S400 side-by-side with the F-35, what level of threat does Turkey now pose if it decides to handover what it knows about the F-35?
Seems odd that Turkish pilots were allowed to start training at Luke, and they presumably now have a treasure trove of secrets to share...
Surely the brass knew the possibility of Turkey ordering the S-400....I can't help but wonder what will happen to nuclear assets in Turkey down the line.

Word from recruiters on Reddit is that it's not being used on officer candidates as far as MEPS is concerned. FCI is another question....
