This may have been asked and answered. If so, I apologize for missing it.
One of the questionable documents has a typed letterhead with a PO Box '34567'. Was that a legitimate post office box back then? If so, was it the correct address for that branch of the National Guard?
not 'questionable documents', 'forged documents'.

Yes, that's apparently a legitimate address.
Bush used it in other latters and forms that we know are accurate.
However, the other "address" that is "blacked out" in the other document IS false: Bush had moved from that street in 1968, several years BEFORE the "memo" was supposedly written in 1972.
Of course, since the memo was actually "typed" this summer, that can be said to be true under all circumstances
"not 'questionable documents', 'forged documents'."
You're right. I have to stop being so PC.
I read somewhere (and I'll try to find the source and report back) that that is currently the correct address for the 111th, but that before the ZIP+4 code came into being, PO Box numbers were only three digits long.
In 1972 I worked in the building directly in front of the TANG Headquarters building (Air Force Reserves).
We used standardized letterhead and never used P.O. box addresses. Our address was simply the group headquarters name, and Ellington AFB, Tx. I suspect thier's was something similar.
That would only allow for 999 possible box numbers. The number is unusual but legit. It appears on at least one of the REAL documents from Bush's records.
I thought it merely rested on the size of the post office of the box in question. If it is a BIG post office, more boxes and higher numbers. I reserve the right to be wrong on this.

19 - Box 34567 is suspicious, at best. The current use of the po box 34567 is Ashland Chemical Company, A Division of Ashland Oil, Incorporated P. O. Box 34567 Houston

NO MEMOS FOR OIL!!!!
Actually, three-digit PO Box numbers would allow for 1000 PO boxes in each zip code, which seems like it would be plenty to me, but if the number appears in a genuine document, then I guess what I read was wrong, and I'll stop looking for the source.
These forgeries regarding the docs are so obvious, as I've worked for the DOD. There are SOP's regardin the spacing, letterhead etc., and these documents are truly forged.
