“As far as military
aircrafts, there’s three dif-
ferent phases,” explained
Bennett. “One is Squadron
Level, where they do lower
bits, changing actuators,
panels, and stuff like that.
Then there’s intermediate
where they do a little more
intrusive, like they take
wings off, fl ight control,
stuff like that.
“And then what I did
was basically depot-level,
which is you bring them in
for periodic maintenance,
for inspections, and we
stripped all the panels off,
the wings off, fl ight con-
trols, and take them down
to basically a skeleton.”
Bennett said that when
working on aircraft, they
had the Center Barrel Pro-
gram, where they take an
F-18 and cut it into three
sections, the center section
being the barrel section the
wings attach to, and put a
brand new section in.
“It becomes a product
that’s unrecognizable until
you put it all back together
again and it turns back
into an F-18,” explained
Bennett.

“I heard this past week-
end from students at the
University of Oregon who
had a 4.0 grade average
were working two jobs and
were sending money to
their parents.
“These are exactly the
kind of young people we
want.
“And they were telling
me, ‘Ron, I want to serve
in the military. I want to
be in police. I’d like to
be able to earn money to
be able to help my fam-
ily’. These are exactly
the people that we want
to have. So I personally
feel very strongly that we
should say these dreamers
have done nothing wrong,”
explained Wyden.
He said, “I want us to
pass a bill by the end of
this year saying that these
young people can stay,
young people who have
done nothing wrong and
have a good track record
and no evidence of com-
mitting crimes.
“I think we will be a
better and stronger nation
if we had those dreamers
here.”
Wyden ended the meet-
ing by sayin, “I’m going
to do everything I can to
unpack these fundamental
problems and come up
with policies that build on
what I think our country’s
always been about, which
is giving everybody in
America the chance to get
ahead. That’s what we’re
all about.
“We’re strongest and
we’re at our best when we
give the chance for every-
body to get ahead and it
comes back particularly for
purposes like tonight.
“You don’t day that
small, rural communities
are sacrifi ce zones and
that’s the way it goes.
“Not on my watch.”
