Bush skipped a required medical exam that cost his pilot's status in August 1972.
A six-month historical record of his 147th Fighter Interceptor Group, also turned over to the AP on Tuesday, shows some of the training Bush missed with his colleagues during that time.
Significantly, it showed the unit joined a "24-hour active alert mission to safeguard against surprise attack" in the southern United State beginning on Oct. 6, 1972, a time when Bush did not report for duty, according to his pay records.

Kerry gets Purple Hearts he received in a war zone questioned but Bush's failure to fulfill his sole job in the military by skipping a physical during that same time is not "damning"?
You really should stick to the "he's got other qualifications for the job now" tack.
