"Turnipseed told the Boston Globe four years ago. "If we had had a first lieutenant from Texas, I would have remembered." But by last week Turnipseed's memory had grown cloudy. "I did say in 2000 that I didn't remember seeing him," Turnipseed, now 75, told TIME. "But after I said that, I backed up and realized I didn't even remember if I was on the base in 1972 or not.""

Again, when he tries to correct them they accuse him of backpedaling.

Yep. I am beginning to think that the good General should refuse to discuss this matter further. The media seems bent on either extracting what they want from him or making him look bad.
