the Fallon Naval Air Station ``Top Gun'' school in Nevada recently had some important visitors. No, they were not the U.S. Navy cadets. It was the Chinese. Even after knowing their latest espionage tactics, our Government granted about 20 communist Chinese an open-door visit to the Naval Strike and Air Warfare Center at Fallon Naval Air Station. Providing the Chinese communists with classified information about our military equipment, aircraft, tactics and operations is just sheer lunacy. Why were they allowed to visit that facility? Who knows? This facility has trained 90 percent of our naval warfare pilots. Fallon Naval Air Station is not just a field in Nevada. It is a vital training link for our naval aviators worldwide. If the American taxpayers could not be afforded the same high-level tour, why would this administration grant the communist Chinese a carte blanche visit? Mr. Speaker, top gun Chinese are not the type of American exports I would expect from the United States Navy.
