Bush remembered as wartime hero and political shaker

Bush as a WWII flyer who earned the Distinguished Flying Cross after 58 missions, later building a long political ascent from Congress to ambassador roles and eventually the presidency. It notes his Gulf War leadership, family background in Massachusetts and Texas, and his mixed domestic record including tax policy U-turns and landmark legislation like the Americans with Disabilities Act.
