Code Talker: The First and Only Memoir By One of the Original Navajo Code Talkers of WWII

Description

The first and only memoir by one of the original Navajo code talkers of WWII.
His name wasn’t Chester Nez. That was the English name he was assigned in
kindergarten. And in boarding school at Fort Defiance, he was punished for
speaking his native language, as the teachers sought to rid him of his culture
and traditions. But discrimination didn’t stop Chester from answering the call
to defend his country after Pearl Harbor, for the Navajo have always been
warriors, and his upbringing on a New Mexico reservation gave him the
strength—both physical and mental—to excel as a marine. During World War II,
the Japanese had managed to crack every code the United States used. But when
the Marines turned to its Navajo recruits to develop and implement a secret
military language, they created the only unbroken code in modern warfare—and
helped assure victory for the United States over Japan in the South Pacific.
