HoustonChronicle.com - Files shed light on Bush Guard service

"The records failed to directly confirm Bush did any service in Alabama, where, according to some critics, he shirked his Guard duty in the United States during the Vietnam War. "

The optimist would say that at least Bubba Bush didn't falsify his service records. That is an upside.

On the downside, it looks like the current Chief Bubba didn't perform his duties like he should have. Now the questions are 1) Was this normal because everyone was getting away with it? 2) Was he technically AWOL?
