Hey. I'll include two sentences for some context, but what I really want to know is if highly favored should be hyphenated.
or
Thanks.
So is it:
How you traveled in the Navy was a clue to the regard the big brass had for you. The highly-favored shuttled around in lightning fast, luxurious Navy jets.

I think it should be hyphenated because otherwise it's confusing as it's like an adverb (highly) modifying an adjective (favored). Hyphenating them seems to link them and make them a noun.
