    Anyone know about the Hawaii ANG? When do they usually have their board? Will this one be rated or UPT? I can't seem to find anything regarding their boards. Maybe I am looking in the wrong places?

    There will be a UPT board this year, typically it is announced in May on the HIANG recruiting facebook page with applications due by July 

    Spondylolysis

    @goodflightcowboy is there any update on this? I too was diagnosed with a possible case of spondylolysis in 2018 due to a combination of high school football and weight lifting. Symptom free for about 3 years until today when I tweaked it at the gym, it feels exactly like the first time. From what I'm reading (page 835)  https://www.seymourjohnson.af.mil/Portals/105/Documents/MDG Docs/Air Force Waiver Guide.pdf its waiverable if asymptomatic and less than a grade II. Theres some notes of a study about ejections in there too. Huge knot in my stomach like yourself, knowing a waiver is basically required at this point.

    Great news about the 144th, guess my blood pressure will be going up again as I feverishly check my email along with @Checksix this week. 

    For what it's worth, I've had two consecutive fighter POC's mention in my feedback emails that increasing ratings and hours is a good way to make an application stand out, I'm wondering that with the growing number of applicants each year that flight experience is going to carry more weight.
