No mystery:

RUSSERT: Were you favor of the war in Vietnam?

BUSH: I supported my government. I did. And would have gone
had my unit been called up, by the way.

RUSSERT: But you didn't volunteer or enlist to go.

BUSH: No, I didn't. You're right.

"I was not prepared to shoot my eardrum out
with a shotgun in order to get a deferment.
Nor was I willing to go to Canada. So I
chose to better myself by learning how to fly
airplanes."

George W. Bush, 1990
as quoted in The Houston Chronicle
May 8th, 1994.
