Line 36:
Bush's military service record has been a point of controversy, especially during the [[U.S. presidential election, 2004|2004 presidential election]]. His critics have alleged that Bush skipped over a waiting list to receive a National Guard slot, did not report for required duty from 1972 to 1973, and was suspended from flying after missing a required physical examination and drug test. These issues were first publicized during the 2004 Presidential campaign by the group [[Texans for Truth]]. Bush supporters point out that all documentary evidence regarding Bush's service in the Texas Air National Guard, including pay records and an honorable discharge, indicate Bush served honorably.
On [[September 4]], [[1976]], near his family's summer home in [[Kennebunkport, Maine]], police arrested Bush for [[Drunk driving (United States)|driving under the influence]]. He pleaded guilty, was fined $150, and had his driving license suspended for 30 days within Maine.
