I just tried it and also did Courier New. Wasn't Courier the typical typewriter font back then?
Peggy Noonan took a leave of absence to work for the Bush Campaign in any capacity. How is it that Rather, Carville and that Paul Bataglia, (or whatever his name is,) can maintain their posts at CBS and CNN and work for a candidate?

The Selectric had proportional fonts.
Hey, hey, HEY! Don't assign him to me! ;-).
A major tipoff that this is a forgery is the "th" in the 111th. It is miniturized automatically. They didnt have that in 1972.

Go to this link, look at #2 where it says, "Report to 111th F.L.S...... Look at the th in the "111th'. It is miniturized!!!!
Kerry Deceives News Media About His Navy Discharge on JohnKerry.com
"in accordance with"
Mintz is another guy who will not access any interviews, who wants his 15 minutes of fame and suit case full of money. He didn't see Bush... so? Weren't there 600 or so guardsman there?
Byron York's National Review article covers all of this. This is old news. The records clearly show that Bush served honorably...

In 72 the kind of “Letter quality” printer you might have available are a teletype, daisy wheel or, typewriter conversion … (I started my career in computers in 80 doing printer repair) other than that in printer it was dot matrix
Get the word out CBS is a FRAUD!!
W. abbrieviated as 1st Lt. Comments?
He'll respond with:
"Look, John Kerry is a war hero and Bush was AWOL."
It's all they can say to everything.

1. Those were clearly typed in Times New Roman or a similar font. No way that existed in 1972 and 1973. At the very least, Killian went back years later and created these, and at the worst, they are outright forgeries.
2. If these memos were indeed found in Killian's own file - and where else could they have been all these years and never discovered?? - they would not appear to have been repeatedly photocopied, they would be ORIGINALS!!! D'oh!
3. If these were memos Killian wrote to his own file for CYA purposes, why would he bother to put a self-typed letterhead on them? Nobody does this on memos for their own files.
This is an embarrasingle amateurish effort. But don't forget that TIME and Newsweek both ran cover stories on "The Hitler Diaries" before they were exposed as fakes. This would not be the first time a major media outlet desperate for a scoop fell for a hoax!
Handwriting expert?
A valid sig is about the easiest thing to fake when one
is creating an n-th generation forgery, as long as the
forger has access to a genuine sig to scan and drop into
the fake.
A question that arises here is, what is the paper trail?
Was this forgery Berger'd into the US archives, or did
someone create it downstream, before it got to CBS?
George W. Bush is not running on his military record. John F'n Kerry has made his entire campaign on his Viet Nam record. That is the difference.
Kerry has made his military records germain to this election and campaign. Again, Bush has not. Tit for tat is irrelevant here.
What else has Mr. John F'n Kerry done besides Viet Nam?? A un acceptable Massachusetts Senate voting record.
By the way, the picture of the rifle he is handling I saw a few days ago, looking like he was in favor of gun rights. He tried to get that same weapon banned. He was responsible for the writing of the bill, not just voting for it.
Another possible libel lawsuit being filed on behalf of W against "See B.S."
Someone just posted that Selectrics were standard then in the milatary.
