“There was a note attached
saying (the children) had re
ceived comfort from the bear
and hoped we would too."
Cook said.
Menarchik said he thinks
this is going to be a power
ful exhibit that will receive a
powerful response from the
Brazos Valley.
“Americans have an attach
ment to this piece for what ii
represents,” Menarchik said.
“People will want to com
here and touch a piece of
their 21 st century.”
Menarchik said that al
ter the exhibit is taken down
from the Bush Library, it will
be handed over to Texas Task
Force I.
“They will keep the steel
stored until it is ready and pre
pared to be put on permaneni
display at the College St:

to go to Alabama to work on a
political campaign.
Killian wrote that they
talked about Bush getting his
flight physical and that Bush
said he would do it in Alabama
if he remained in flight sta
tus. But he said Bush said he
“may not have the time.” The
memo said Bush was “talking
to someone upstairs” about the
Alabama transfer.
The same memo also made
clear that Killian was concerned
about the fact that the military
had spent a substantial amount
of money training Bush to fly.
“I advised him of our invest
ment in him and his commit
ment,’ he wrote in the memo.
On Aug. 1, 1972, Killian or
dered that Bush “be suspended
from flight status due to failure
to perform to (United States
Air Force/Texas Air National
Guard) standards and failure to
meet annual physical examina
tion (flight) as ordered.”
Killian said he wanted a
formal inquiry into the cir
cumstances surrounding the
flight suspension. No records
have surfaced that one was
ever conducted.
