For this week’s “Take the Oath Tuesday,” I’d like to introduce one of Hawaii Air National Guard’s current member but NEWEST Commissioned Officer, 2nd Lieutenant Stephanie Navarro! Lt Navarro transferred to the HIANG from the Florida Air National Guard in 2018 as a Cyber Transport Systems Administrator. 

As an enlisted member in the HIANG, she submitted an Undergraduate Pilot Training (UPT) package and was selected to become a KC-135 Pilot. Despite this pandemic, Lt Navarro managed to complete Officer Training School (OTS) and was appointed as a 2LT on Friday, 22 May from Maxwell-Gunter AFB, Alabama. 

Currently, she awaits to attend UPT, the next phase of her training. As her Recruiter, TSgt Sharon Pasion witnessed Lt Navarro’s continued commitment to her State and her Country as a true testament and dedication to the HIANG and Air Force.
