And let's not forget that it was F-16's of the 147th Fighter Squadron, TXARNG that escorted Air Force One from Florida, to Barksdale AFB to D.C. on Sept. 11th. THey launched from Ellington Field in Houston and joined up with AF One over the Gulf of Mexico.

Was the 147th. Bush's unit? I spent two years in the California National Guard after six in the Army, so I wonder how many of the press with absolutely no military experience understand that one can transfer from one states National Guard unit to anothers, if there's room in a unit. Or, be put on tdy (temporary duty) to another unit or another state. The ANG controversy only shows the press's ignorance of things military.
