First sentence: At this writing, the security and future of the United States are in the hands of a president who refused to serve his country in combat during the Vietnam War, and who then shirked his commitment to alternative service in the National Guard.
Description: "Now, for the first time, the comprehensive written record of George W. Bush's military career - more than 250 pages in all - is presented in book form." "Unfit Commander also tracks the Bush administration's efforts to defuse the controversy, from Bush's own claim that he "put in his time," to the White House's record of unyielding non-denial denials despite the persistent questioning of the press. And at the heart of the book are the documents themselves: from Bush's agreement that "failure to satisfactorily complete (full) pilot training will result in my being discharged," to his supervisor's statement that "Lt. Bush has not been observed at this unit" during the critical period."--BOOK JACKET.
