Bush's "AWOL" Flap Officially Stupid
I, Jason Van Steenwyk, am issuing an edict:
Anybody who is still screaming about George Bush being AWOL from the Alabama and Texas Air National Guards is officially a dumbass:
Ok, so we're only talking about one quarter, now, plus July?
Christ on a crotch-rocket, people, that's nothing!
Guard officers take sabbaticals all the time for professional reasons--they're usually work-related. Absences of more than a year generally get put into the IRR. I'm constantly excusing people from drill for one or two months to attend a police or fire academy.
And there's an interstate transfer here, to boot?
Ok.
I've done two interstate transfers. They've both been nightmares because Guard state headquarters are often corrupt and prone to cheating on the books by keeping soldiers on the books long after they've left the state, thereby disrupting and delaying interstate transfers. Both of my interstate transfers resulted in breaks of service of more than a year each.
So where's the beef, guys?
Was I AWOL?
Splash, out

Anybody who is still screaming about George Bush being AWOL from the Alabama and Texas Air National Guards is officially a dumbass:
Bush moved to Alabama in May 1972, and his payroll sheet for July through September of that year shows no payment for those months, indicating no military service. But this lack of payment was apparent in pay records covering all of 1972 that the White House released in February along with a batch of Bush's other military files.
