Gary Killian, who once served in the Guard with his father, said he first questioned the validity of parts of the memos – then later became convinced they were all fakes.

Killian admits he is angry with CBS:

"Do I take it personally? Yes. I think, first of all, CBS and Dan Rather owe my deceased father and my family an apology."

Killian added, "I don't accept that this was an innocent mistake. I think it confirms what a lot of people already think: that there is a hidden agenda among some of the media."
