There is a 6 month gap in Bush's service here, followed by more gaps. In 1972, he went to Alabama, but never reported for duty. What happened then is a mystery. But we know Bush did do community service in an inner city social center dring this time period. The kind of thing rich kids do rather than go to prison. right? AWOLBUSH.com has much more info

Also, Bush didn't miss his exam he REFUSED to take his physical (drug test) and was grounded during this period, right after he was finally qualified to do real piloting.
