Yes, I know. I even linked to that page. But I picked up on something that they appear to have missed.

This whole thing is the fabrication of a dufus who probably never laid his fingers on a typewriter. I got off AD in 1973 and joined a Reserve unit. I think they had one electric typewriter at HQS....the rest were all manual. I strongly suspect the President's ANG unit was the same. I noticed that his serial number was followed by the initials NG...which is correct...with one exception our serial numbers always was preceded by those letters NG for Guard...FV for reserve officer and FR for Officer who held regular commissions. Dates were always stated as a continued series of date, month (3 ltr abbreviation), and year. They were never stated any other way and for single digit expressions the "0" was never used 4May1973 or alternatively 4May73... CBS and Dan Rather should be out of business after this blatant attempt at deceit.
