Bush claimed he served in Air Force

"The Nation" says that in President Bush's failed 1978 congressional campaign, he "claimed he had served in the US Air Force. According to a 1999 Associated Press report, Bush's congressional campaign ran a pullout ad in the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal that declared he had served 'in the US Air Force and the Texas Air National Guard where he piloted the F-102 aircraft.'"
The problem? "Bush had never served in the Air Force. He had only been in the Air National Guard."
