i hate bush and i’m glad to see anything negative about him. however, the alabama national gaurd did have planes in 1972. we had a wing of f-4 fantoms from the late 60’s untill a couple of years ago. just a minor detail.

Welcome to the Straight Dope Message Board, **Rowboat.** When you start a thread, it’s helpful if you provide a link to the column you’re talking about. Keeps us all on the same page.

In this case, I presume, [“Was George W. Bush AWOL…?”](http://www.straightdope.com/columns/030411.html) It may seem obvious today, but in a week or so it will be lost in the archives.
