Bush AWOL Document - Unfit for Service

In several Bush documents there is a numbered notation code on his discharge - PTI 961. Paul at the AWOL Project has determined the “900 series” Personnel Transaction Identifier refers to a designation of UNFIT FOR SERVICE. Democrats.com has offered a $1000 reward if someone can determine with documentation what the specific 961 designation means.

The fact that Bush was discharged from the Texas Air National Guard under a Personnel Transaction Identifier used to denote a reduction in total Air Force strength means Bush was considered not merely “useless” under present circumstances, but of no possible use to the Air Force at any point in the future. PTI 961 meant that Bush was unfit for service in the United States Armed Forces, and that there was no point in keeping him around in case of a national emergency.

Baghdad Still Burning

I haven't been keeping up with Riverbend since she has been posting infrequently and I have less web access. Some excellent posts I had missed were Fahrenheit 9/11 in Iraq, Liar, Liar, While Samara is burning, and Valium and other drugs in Baghdad.
