We are constantly recognizing our Veterans and current Military personnel.

I want to say Thank you so much to the Navajo Native Americans who served our country by passing vital military information over US military radios using their Navajo language. It was a very important use of Native Americans language. The Navajo’s set up military codes that were never broken and played an important part in the US winning the Pacific War.

Several Navajo Americans lost their lives during WW II because they served on the front lines.

We owe the Navajo Nation much for their sacrifices to secure our freedoms.

“ During World War II, the Navajo language was the most widely used and successful Native American language for code-talking, creating an unbreakable code that operated in the Pacific theater from Guadalcanal to Okinawa. While Navajo was the primary and most celebrated code, the military also formally developed Type 1 codes based on other Native American languages, including Comanche, Hopi, and Meskwaki (Fox), using a substitution cipher of their native words for military terms. “

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 May God Bless all Native Americans who have contributed much to the success of the United States.

Re: We are constantly recognizing our Veterans and current Military personnel.

My post was never intended to be turned into a divisive post or a post that could be turned into racism.

It was simply meant acknowledge the Navajo Nation who most volunteered to serve on WW II and create a coding system that the Japanese soldiers could never understand or a code that was never broken. I mentioned the Navajo Nation because of their role in WW II. Many people may not have known that.

Do we need to cover every single race of people in every post. You notice I left out all other races that severed in WW II because this article I read and the movie Windtalkers was about the Navajo Nation. I did not know which native Americans created the code until recently.

Dang some people 😟🤨😡 seem to find anything positive im a post 🐅🇺🇸

I am thankful for all men and women from many nations who fought with the Allie’s to defeat the Axis nations.
