<<WASHINGTON (AP) -- Addressing questions that have lingered for years,
newly unearthed memos state that George W. Bush failed to meet standards of
the
Texas Air National Guard during the Vietnam war, that he refused a direct
order and that his superiors were in a state of turmoil over how to evaluate
his
performance after he was suspended from flying.
One military official "is pushing to sugar coat it," one memo says of a
proposed evaluation of _Bush_
(http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2004/special/president/candidates/bush.new.html/)
.
"On this date I ordered that 1st Lt. Bush be suspended from flight status due
to failure to perform to USAF/TexANG standards and failure to meet annual
physical examination ... as ordered," says an August 1, 1972 memo by a superior
officer, Lt. Col. Jerry Killian, who is now dead. >>
