Sorry to get off topic, but this subject doesn't really seem worthy of another thread. This article seems to me to be a pretty comprehensive record of his service. It mentions a time when his service dropped somewhere in 1972, but he eventually made up the required points to be honerably discharged. If this is the time in question, where so many suggest he was "AWOL", and avoiding going to vietnam, wasn't the war almost over at this point anyway. His entire service was during the height of the war (i think). Anyway - seems to account for much more than just a few dental records. What is it that i'm missing, or what exactly is it that your looking for. It doesn't appear that he did anything illegal.
P.S. - i don't have time to quote the whole article being that it will only let me copy and paste one paragraph at a time, does anyone know why this is?
