authorized by president nixon to drop that notion, and another notion, that the possible return of okinawa would be considered were richard nixon elected. these two gifts, if you will, advance notice of what may happen in china, although i cooperate -- couldn't be explicit, were very, very welcome in japan. by the time i got to korea, i couldn't deliver the letter because four days earlier, the north korean guerrillas add attacked, and the last of them were shot dead at the blue house. so i couldn't effectively deliver the letter. as it was, mr. nixon had a broad vision for asia after vietnam, which meant that he saw a conclusion to vietnam, which he wasn't permitted to than conclude as promptly as he would like, peace with honor. but he saw something very profound. he opened the door to china, no question about it. no one else could have done it. but i do think that were he alive today, richard nixon would be having some very serious second thoughts about where that relationship has led and some of the overhanging dangers inherent in it. >> thank you>> thank you. my colleagues have touche

regard to guam, while the navy is attempting to move more than 17,000 marines and their families from okinawa to guam, the plan that chairman johnson and i have seen has serious problems and, therefore, there are no projects in this bill associated with this very complicated move. we did fund the air force request for projects related to the strike capability for the beddown of strike and intelligence capabilities, but the rest we are looking for further information on. also with regard to our military infrastructure in germany, we believe there is a better need for accounting and funds and that we provide for facilities. as a result, we cut about $37 million from requested projects. with regard to charter schools, improving education for our military families, the children of service members, we think, have a unique situation and fewer choices when choosing schools, and so we've asked the department of defense to conduct a study and tell this committee where charter schools could make a positive difference. i will highlight here my work with my fellow senator, senator durbin, or potential ch
