Dan Rather wants us to believe that National Guard outfits had top of the line, EXPENSIVE typwriters. This ex-Army clerk shows us what the reality was.

***Finally, we were called into a meeting and given a simple instruction: Anyone caught trafficking in this information would be summarily fired. The Bush family did not want to "win this way." Because we were almost sure to lose anyway, they made a further promise that violators would never work in Washington again. Any doubts were laid to rest when we were told who sent this message: the president's son, George W. Bush. ***

Bump!

I was Army Reserves/National Guard from 1971 - 1977.
I did a lot of 'clerking' for the Captain and First Seargent.
I never saw anything but a manual typewriter the entire time.
