Superscripts

USA Today's PDF compilation of Bush's official TANG records provides two examples in which the letters "th" were typed as a superscript. Click the link and follow along.

On page three of the PDF, Bush's Chronological Listing of Service, check out line two:

Pilot Trainee, 111th Fighter Interceptor Squadron, Ellingotn AFB, Texas (TexANG)

The "th" in "111th" is a superscript.

On page 10 of the PDF, in Bush's Record of Military Status of Registrant, look at item 8:

Organization: 147th Ftr Grp

Once again, the "th" in "147th" is a superscript.

Proportional Type

This IBM advertisement (via the Newsroom) proves that proportional type has been available since the 1950s.

NG service is shirking duty? Not in my book.

I know some people wanted to get in the Guard back during the VN days. I knew a guy who did get in the national guard. He was no one special, his mom was a nurse, dad was retired, they had a small house like ours. Conclusion: Ordinary people with no "pull" could and did get in the guard.

Another consideration, Bush signed up to be a pilot. While lots of people were signing up to get into the guard, how many were trying to become pilots?
