One of the thing that bugs me about the Bush “AWOL” story is that no one ever talks to a National Guardsman.
As I’ve said before, yeah, Bush slacked off the last year, after serving 4.5 years in the guard. However, that’s not AWOL, that’s just slacking, and everyone did it.
As this guy puts it:
Bush didn’t avoid his service anymore than I did. We both did what we could to avoid the worst thing a young man can face: boredom.
