The Pete Yost story has this passage, which indicates the White House DID NOT release the memos CBS obtained:
---
The White House said in February that it had released all records of Bush's service, but one of Killian's memos stated it was "for record" and another directing Bush to take the physical exam stated that it was "for 1st Lt. George W. Bush."
"I can't explain why that wouldn't be in his record, but they were found in Jerry Killian's personal records," White House communications director Dan Bartlett told CBS's "60 Minutes II," which first obtained the memos.

The CBS story doesn't say how they got the documents, except to claim they were from Killian's personal files. That is to say, they didn't get them from the White House. Here's the relevant quote from CBS:
"But 60 Minutes has obtained a number of documents we are told were taken from Col. Killian's personal file. "

I think we can put that particular problem to bed.
Thank you, Buckhead. This story is very confusing--perhaps because there are so many 'Rat lies intertwined.
I heard on Fox this morning too, that the memos had been released by the WH. Wouldn't this give them some validity?
