Military Flight Training

Bush's last physical was in May 1971. He refused to take his next
scheduled physical and was grounded and never flew again in the Air
National Guard.

Wrong, on several accounts.

First, he didn't refuse! Nobody refuses in the military! He didn't
take it because he wasn't in Texas. He *missed* his physical.

And I suppose you define AWOL as merely taking a vacation.

Second, the year was 1972.

Third, when he took his last physical in 1973, he was listed as "crew
member on flight status."

You seem to have information about his physical that no one else has.
The last one of record was in 1971. Would you care to quote someone other
than yourself.

For a COMPLETE time line AND the regulations that applied at the time I
suggest you read the very COMPLETE AND DOCUMENTED link below:

The author accepts comments, corrections and suggestions and you can contact
him at the email address on the web page. If you have information that he
should include or consider, I suggest you do write to him.

There are just too many coincidences which point to the fact that Bush has a
credibility problem to say the least.

This week we learn his pay records for the time he was supposedly pulling
duty in Alabama have suspiciously been destroyed.

The SEC file on him pertaining to his questionable Harken stock sale have
mysteriously been "Lost"

During or prior to his becoming Governor of Texas, his Texas drivers license
and record was expunged and a new license issued. Hint: In Texas your
criminal record is part of your driver record. Need I say more.

I really don't want to turn this into an off topic debate on this newsgroup
so if you have more to say, please contact me at my email address and also
keep me up to date on your correspondance with the author of the web page I
mentioned.
