Typeface did not exist when letters were supposedly written, wrong letter head size, people referenced had retired from Guard, man did not type, some symbols in letter could have only been made on computer. No computers in general office use in '73. Letters are proportionally spaced. No proportionally spaced typewriters in AFNG.

MS Word makes letters exactly as shown.

Forgery... and a bad forgery.

Had CBS been fooled by good forgery, that's one thing, but this was a bad armature job, and they aired it!

CBS' defense of their due-diligence in authenticating these documents just don't stand scrutiny (in fact its laughable). They claim they have been authenticating them for like 6 weeks, and that their experts found them to be legitimate. But from what I am reading tonight, its darn near unanimous that all experts are quickly determining that they are forgeries, and not just forgeries, but poor forgeries. Are we to believe that CBS just had the rotten luck to pick the 2 or 3 least capable experts in the country to analyze these documents? Actually, now that I think about it, I can believe that CBS would purposely choose poor experts to give them the results they wanted.
