![]() "Cub Driver" wrote in message ... t he can't really be a pilot. I mean a true pilot, Ah, now you are defining pilot! Here's what the Boston Globe, which first broke the charges that Bush was AWOL during the last year or so of his Air Guard tour, concluded in an editorial: ******************************************** Those who trained and flew with Bush, until he gave up flying in April 1972, said he was among the best pilots in the 111th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron. In the 22-month period between the end of his flight training and his move to Alabama, Bush logged numerous hours of duty, well above the minimum requirements for so-called ''weekend warriors.'' Indeed, in the first four years of his six-year commitment, Bush spent the equivalent of 21 months on active duty, including 18 months in flight school. His Democratic opponent, Vice President Al Gore, who enlisted in the Army for two years and spent five months in Vietnam, logged only about a month more active service, since he won an early release from service. *********************************************** I conclude that Bush was a pilot and a military man, and that you aren't much of either. Plonk! all the best -- Dan Ford email: Awwwwww, Dan!!! Now you've gone an destroyed his delusion. |
