This was posted in LBN a couple of days ago, that his Colorado record was for a disciplinary unit. The media is missing the story yet again.

You know the mysterious torn document? It's torn no longer. And it ain't a Texas Air National Guard document:
http://www.calpundit.com/archives/003220.html As it turns out, though, we have traded one mystery for another. It's now clear that the document is genuine, but what exactly does it tell us? In particular:
The first listed date is October 29, not November 29 as we had theorized before. But George Bush was still in Alabama in October. What exactly was he getting attendance credit for?
This is neither a Texas Air National Guard document nor an Alabama document. What is it?
The answer, as you can see from the top line, is that it is an ARF document, as is this record from 1973
...
ARF is a "paper unit" based in Denver that requires no drills and no attendance. For active guard members it is disciplinary because ARF members can theoretically be called up for active duty in the regular military, although this obviously never happened to George Bush.
To make a long story short, Bush apparently blew off drills beginning in May 1972, failed to show up for his physical, and was then grounded and transferred to ARF as a disciplinary measure.
