Remind me, where ARE those service records from 72-73?
Now, another voice - a credible voice - has entered the debate. Killian's secretary, Marian Carr Knox, describes herself as Killian's "right hand" during much of the 1970s.
She flew to New York Wednesday afternoon to tell 60 Minutes that she believes the documents we obtained are not authentic.
But there's yet another confusing twist to this story. She told Correspondent Dan Rather that she believes what the documents actually say is exactly as we reported.
Knox is 86 years old, and completely comfortable in the eye of a storm. She spent more than two decades keeping pilots and officers in line at Ellington Air Force Base in Houston. Now, she wants to set the record straight about the memos that CBS News obtained.
Knox says she didn't type these memos, but she says she did type ones that contained the same information.
"I know that I didn't type them," says Knox. "However, the information in those is correct."
Knox says the information in the four memos that CBS obtained is very familiar, but she doesn't believe the memos are authentic. She does, however, remember Killian being upset over Mr. Bush's failure to take a physical.
"Did or did not Lt. Bush take a physical as ordered by Col. Killian," Rather asks Knox.
"The last time, no he didn't," says Knox. "It was a big no-no to not follow orders. And I can't remember anyone refusing to. Now for instance, with the physical, every officer knew that before his birthday he was supposed to have that flying physical. Once in a while they might be late, but there would be a good excuse for it and let the commander know and try to set up a date for a make-up. If they did not take that physical, they were off flying status until they did."
Did Knox ever hear Killian talk about this, or did he write memos about Bush not taking the physical?
"He was upset about it. That was one of the reasons why he wrote a memo directing him to go take the physical," says Knox. "I'm going to say this, but it seems to me that Bush felt that he was above reproach."

So, the secretary typed those records with the same info. Yet, they don't exist, eh? aWol's daddy purged the records while still potus, then they released them doctored with newer fonts to create the perfect storm that killed two birds with the same stone.
1. It falsely portrayed the only news show critical of aWol as less than credible.
2. It put to rest the search for his records.
Of course, we all know that last regime would never stoop to leaking FALSE INFO, right?
LMFAO
