I did the search you recommended. I found a bunch of obviously left wing sites that mostly could be described as "left-wing attack BS". A few sites that basically have little reputation one way or the other that would not be considered major news sites or reputable political sites. One game site and the following "Bush AWOL on borders" washtimes.com "George W. Bush AWOL on Elian" newsmax.com "Bush AWOL on border security" washtimes.com and one that might be relevant but contains little in the way of solid evidence - "Trail Mix: Did Bush go AWOL on Guard?" archive.salon.com "May 25, 2000 \| George W. Bush didn't just dodge duty in Vietnam, he apparently skipped out on his stint in the National Guard as well. The Boston Globe reports a one-year gap in Bush's military records after he went to work for a political campaign in Alabama in May of 1972. Though Bush promised to continue his service while stationed in that state, there is no evidence that he ever showed up for Alabama Guard duty. "Had he reported in, I would have had some recall, and I do not," said retired Gen. William Turnipseed, who commanded the Alabama unit at the time Bush claims to have served. "I had been in Texas, done my flight training there. If we had a first lieutenant from Texas, I would have remembered." Furthermore, Texas National Guard records indicate that Bush failed to return to service there even after the Alabama campaign ended in November 1972. Bush, however, insists that his military service is complete. The candidate told the Associated Press, "I served my full obligation with the Texas National Guard. That's why I was honorably discharged.""
