I was going to point out that the President did, in fact, serve in the Texas ANG. I dunno about the Vietnam request thingee though. He's had some pretty big shoes to fill all his life so it's possible that he wanted a combat assignment. As we all know, Bush SR was a bomber pilot in WWII and had his airplane shot out from under him. I served under Bush senior's watch (and Dick Cheney's oddly enough, he was Sec'y of Defense) and have a tremendous amount of respect for him, even if I disagree with his son.
Another bit of trivia ... a local 135 op near me often flies the Senior Bushes and one of their pilots says Sr. is a really laid back, regular kinda guy and he'll often talk flying with the hired help. Kewl!

(I still think Bush Jr. is off on a tangent )
