George W. Bush: Military Pilot***Says a frankly anti-Bush article in the Washington Post: "In December 1969, George W. returned to Houston to hone his skills and eventually fly solo on the all-weather F-102, firing its weapons and conducting intercept missions against supersonic targets. He learned with a verve that impressed his superiors, becoming the the first hometown graduate of the 147th's newly established Combat Crew Training School." While Bush was in the 111th FIS, the parent group came off runway alert and was assigned the mission of training F-102 pilots in the United States for the Air National Guard. ***
