Sure, Bush dodged the draft, along with a reported 14 million other Americans with the savvy to work out that Vietnam was a no-win, sorry war. But although he had the luck and the connections to land a spot in the Air Guard, he did put his butt on the line flying a machine for which he was entitled to hazardous-duty pay - and that's because zooming around in a jet fighter was and still is highly dangerous.
I would think his saying that during Vietnam, Bush a) dodged the draft AND b) land[ed] a spot in the ANG could be construed as saying 'those in the GuArd didn't serve during Vietnam.' Is there any other way to interpet it ?
