Great story, thank you for sharing. We are all part of history!
At night, the man spent time trying to teach my grandfather German.
Why do you suppose that was?

Thanks for posting this...I often wonder what other men, who we will never know of, did and do now outstanding service for our country as these men did. I honor them all with gratitude...they saved many lifes.

Code Talkers earned great respect from those they worked with - and hopefully now more Americans will understand their contributions to the war effort.
Didn't know about all the different tribes involved - that's nice to know. Another thing - when they were asked not to say anything about what they had done, they didn't say anything. Totally honorable.
It's nice to see them receive some of the recognition they deserve. Thanks for sharing.
