August 14th - Navajo Code Talkers Day
While some of these titles are not currently available on our shelves, don't be afraid to ask your friendly neighborhood librarian to put them on hold for you!
Code Talker by Chester Nez
The first and only memoir by one of the original Navajo code talkers of WWII - includes the actual Navajo Code and rare photos. 
Although more than 400 Navajos served in the military during World War II as top-secret code talkers, even those fighting shoulder to shoulder with them were not told of their covert function. And, after the war, the Navajos were forbidden to speak of their service until 1968, when the code was finally declassified. Of the original twenty-nine Navajo code talkers, only two are still alive. Chester Nez is one of them.
In this memoir, the eighty-nine-year-old Nez chronicles both his war years and his life growing up on the Checkerboard Area of the Navajo Reservation-the hard life that gave him the strength, both physical and mental, to become a Marine. His story puts a living face on the legendary men who developed what is still the only unbroken code in modern warfare.
Invisible Heroes of World War II by Jerry Borrowman
This unique collection documents twelve fascinating and largely untold stories of minorities, women, and Native Americans who supported the Allied cause in World War II. Courageously serving as soldiers, spies, POWs, builders, medics, and movie stars, they fought for the cause of freedom and democracy against the combined threat of the Nazis and Axis powers.
The First Code Talkers by William C. Meadows
Many Americans know something about the Navajo code talkers in World War II—but little else about the military service of Native Americans, who have served in our armed forces since the American Revolution, and still serve in larger numbers than any other ethnic group. But, as we learn in this splendid work of historical restitution, code talking originated in World War I among Native soldiers whose extraordinary service resulted, at long last, in U.S. citizenship for all Native Americans.
Drawing on nearly thirty years of research—in U.S. military and Native American archives, surviving accounts from code talkers and their commanding officers, family records, newspaper accounts, and fieldwork in descendant communities—the author explores the origins, use, and legacy of the code talkers. In the process, he highlights such noted decorated veterans as Otis Leader, Joseph Oklahombi, and Calvin Atchavit and scrutinizes numerous misconceptions and popular myths about code talking and the secrecy surrounding the practice.
With appendixes that include a timeline of pertinent events, biographies of known code talkers, and related World War I data, this book is the first comprehensive work ever published on Native American code talkers in the Great War and their critical place in American military history.
Under the Eagle by Samuel Holiday
Samuel Holiday was one of a small group of Navajo men enlisted by the Marine Corps during World War II to use their native language to transmit secret communications on the battlefield. Based on extensive interviews with Robert S. McPherson, Under the Eagle is Holiday’s vivid account of his own story. It is the only book-length oral history of a Navajo code talker in which the narrator relates his experiences in his own voice and words.
Under the Eagle carries the reader from Holiday’s childhood years in rural Monument Valley, Utah, into the world of the United States’s Pacific campaign against Japan—to such places as Kwajalein, Saipan, Tinian, and Iwo Jima. Central to Holiday’s story is his Navajo worldview, which shapes how he views his upbringing in Utah, his time at an Indian boarding school, and his experiences during World War II. Holiday’s story, coupled with historical and cultural commentary by McPherson, shows how traditional Navajo practices gave strength and healing to soldiers facing danger and hardship and to veterans during their difficult readjustment to life after the war.
The Navajo code talkers have become famous in recent years through books and movies that have dramatized their remarkable story. Their wartime achievements are also a source of national pride for the Navajos. And yet, as McPherson explains, Holiday’s own experience was “as much mental and spiritual as it was physical.” This decorated marine served “under the eagle” not only as a soldier but also as a Navajo man deeply aware of his cultural obligations.

Code Talker: The First and Only Memoir of One of the Original Navajo Code Talkers of WWII is not just a book; it's a journey. It takes you back in time to a different era, a period where racism and discrimination were rampant, but so was the spirit of patriotism and courage. Chester Nez, one of the original Navajo code talkers of World War II, shares his story in this book, and it's a story that not only inspires but also educates. The book takes us through Nez's childhood, where we see the struggles he faced in a system that was determined to erase his culture and identity. However, Nez was determined to hold on to his Navajo heritage, and this determination would help him become a valuable asset to the US military. The book then delves into Nez's time in the Marines and his experience as a code talker. During World War II, the Japanese had cracked every code used by the United States. It was a dire situation, and the US was desperate for a solution. This is where Nez and his fellow Navajo code talkers come in. Their language was one of the most complex in the world, and it could never be deciphered. It was used to transmit messages during the war, and it played a pivotal role in securing victory for the Allies. Nez's account of his time as a code talker is fascinating. We get to see the training and the effort that went into creating this secret code. We also get to see the danger they faced on the battlefield and how the code was used to save countless lives. Nez's storytelling is candid and humorous, and it adds a human element to the book. He makes it easy to understand and relatable even to those who are not familiar with the military or history. One of the highlights of this book is that it includes the actual Navajo code used during World War II. It's a fascinating read, and it gives readers an insight into just how complex and intricate the language was. It's also a testament to the skill and bravery of Nez and his fellow Navajo code talkers. The book is well-written and well-researched. The author, Judith Schiess Avila, co-wrote the book with Nez, and she did an excellent job of capturing his voice and bringing his story to life. The book also includes rare pictures that add to the overall experience. In conclusion, Code Talker: The First and Only Memoir of One of the Original Navajo Code Talkers of WWII is a must-read for anyone interested in history, the military, or just a good story. It's a book that will make you laugh, cry, and feel inspired. Chester Nez's legacy is one that should be celebrated, and this book is a fitting tribute to his life and achievements. Don't miss out on the life-changing insights and powerful storytelling of this book! Click "Buy now" to get your copy, or "Start your 30-day free trial" to listen on Audible today.

Odds & Ends: December 22, 2023
Code Talker: The First and Only Memoir by One of the Original Navajo Code Talkers of WWII by Chester Nez. During WWII, the Marines recruited members of the Navajo tribe to create a secret military code based on the Navajo language; the code was ultimately crucial in helping the Americans win many battles — including taking Iwo Jima — and is the only spoken military code never to have been deciphered. Despite mistreatment by the government growing up, Chester Nez remained very patriotic and volunteered for the Marines during the war; he was selected to be part of the original all-Navajo platoon that developed the code and then deployed it in the field, making round-the-clock transmissions on Guadalcanal and other campaigns in the Pacific theater. Nez’s memoir is an easy, relatively short read about an interesting, oft-overlooked part of WWII history and covers his life before, during, and after the war, and how his warrior heritage and the Navajo traditions helped him live the “Right Way.” Heat Therapy Patches. If you’ve got an ache or pain, using a heating pad can bring relief. Problem is, a heating pad tethers you to an electrical cord, and if you’re using one while you sleep, the pad won’t stay in the spot you want to treat. Enter heat therapy patches. Stick one on your body (they say to stick it on your clothes, but to be hot enough and stay in the same place, I put it directly on my skin), and you get 12 hours of soothing, limbering heat. I use this generic brand, and it works well. When I feel some niggle in my back that threatens to turn into a chronic problem, I put a patch on my back before bed, and when I get up — voila! — the pain is gone. The Age of Average. Have you noticed that everything looks the same these days? A coffee shop in Tulsa, OK looks pretty much the same as a coffee shop in Raleigh, NC. Airbnbs have mostly the same interior designs. Cars look the same. Even people look the same. Have you noticed how female Instagram influencers all have the same sort of “look”? The kids these days call it “Instagram face.” Alex Murrell calls this rising monoculture “the age of average” and explores what’s behind it in this article. Once you know about the age of average, you’ll start seeing it everywhere. Here’s to zigging when everyone else is zagging.  The Man Who Came to Dinner. I watched this 1942 film after Jeremy Arnold recommended it in our podcast episode about classic Christmas movies. The Man Who Came to Dinner is an offbeat screwball comedy about an acerbic literary critic named Sheridan Whiteside who slips on ice and injures himself outside a family’s home in Ohio. Forced to stay with the family during the Christmas season while he recovers, Whiteside quickly takes over the household with his demanding, eccentric behavior. Monty Woolley and Bette Davis crackle in this movie as they throw sarcastic zings at each other. A great film to remind you of the virtues of being a good houseguest during the holidays.  Quote of the Week I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future. The Spirits of all three shall strive within me. I will not shut out the lessons that they teach. ― Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol The post Odds & Ends: December 22, 2023 appeared first on The Art of Manliness. http://dlvr.it/T0VK3X

National Navajo Code Talkers Day
As World War II raged, the need arose for the improvement of coded messages on the Pacific Front. These messages conveyed secret information from battle lines to air bases and other locations. Cipher machines, which did the coding, didn’t work well in the jungles of the Pacific Islands. Additionally, the Japanese were adept at code-breaking, because many knew English well—many even had been educated in the United States. Ultimately, the Navajo Code Talkers were the answer, and we celebrate and remember them today, on National Navajo Code Talkers Day.
Philip Johnston, a World War I veteran, hoped to contribute to World War II as well. He had been raised by missionaries on a Navajo reservation and had grown up speaking the tribe’s language. He came up with the idea of basing a code off of the language, as he knew other tribes didn’t know the language, and that the general public didn’t know it either. In February 1942, Johnston visited Camp Elliott near San Diego, along with four bilingual Navajos, who demonstrated the language to Marine staff officers. The officers were impressed, and Major General Clayton Vogel requested Marine Corps Headquarters in Washington, D.C. to authorize the recruiting of 200 Navajos to be Marine communication specialists. Headquarters approved the authorization of 30, and 29 ultimately became part of the original Code Talkers. These men had all of the qualifications that were required to be a Marine but also were fluent in English and Navajo.
On May 5, 1942, the recruits arrived in San Diego for seven weeks of basic training at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot. They then went to the Fleet Marine Force Training Center at nearby Camp Elliot and did intensive training with transmitting and radio operation. They also developed the code that would be used in battle. At the time, the Navajo language had no alphabet and no written form. The recruits—who became the 382 Platoon, U.S. Marine Corps, and were referred to as “The Navajo School” while at boot camp—came up with a two-part code. The first part was a 26-letter alphabet that corresponded with Navajo words.  The second part of the code was a vocabulary with 211 English words that had Navajo synonyms. Over the course of the war, this expanded to 411 words.
In August 1942, most of the Code Talkers went to Guadalcanal, the first place where the code was used in battle. More Code Talkers were requested, and by August 1943 there were almost 200. In all, 421 Code Talkers were trained during the war. The Navajo Code Talkers served in all six Marine divisions in the Pacific, as well as with the Marine Raiders, and with the Marine parachute units. They were integral in many battles in the Pacific, and besides Guadalcanal, participated in assaults at locations such as the Solomon Islands, the Mariana Islands, and Iwo Jima. The Japanese were unable to decipher the telephone and radio messages that the Code Talkers conveyed.
The role of the Navajo Code Talkers was largely unknown for many years, and the program was classified until 1968. In 1982, Congress passed House Joint Resolution 444, which requested President Ronald Reagan to designate National Navajo Code Talkers Day on August 14. On July 28, Ronald Reagan issued Proclamation 4954, which said that the day was “dedicated to all members of the Navaho Nation and to all Native Americans who gave of their special talents and their lives so that others might live. I ask the American people to join me in this tribute, and I call upon Federal, State and local officials to commemorate this day with appropriate activities.”
In 2000, the Honoring the Navajo Code Talkers Act was signed into law. It authorized the president to present the Congressional Gold Medal to the original Code Talkers. This presentation was done the following year, and the Code Talkers that weren’t a part of the original group were given the Congressional Silver Medal. In addition to today being National Navajo Code Talkers Day, it is also Navajo Code Talkers Day. This day was designated by the Navajo Nation Council in 2007.
How to Observe
There are numerous ways that you could celebrate the day. If you are up for some traveling, you could stop at the Navajo Code Talkers Museum in Tuba City, Arizona; the Navajo Code Talkers Museum in Gallup, New Mexico; or the Navajo Code Talkers Exhibit in Kayenta, Arizona. If you wish to stay at home today, there are many books or films related to the subject of the Navajo Code Talkers that you could explore.  You could read Code Talker: The First and Only Memoir By One of the Original Navajo Code Talkers of World War II or The Navajo Code Talkers. You could watch the documentary Navajo Wind Talkers of World War II or the feature film Windtalkers. In addition, there are many interviews with Navajo Code Talkers that you could watch online.

Code Talker: The First and Only Memoir of One of the Original Navajo Code Talkers of WWII is not just a book; it's a journey. It takes you back in time to a different era, a period where racism and discrimination were rampant, but so was the spirit of patriotism and courage. Chester Nez, one of the original Navajo code talkers of World War II, shares his story in this book, and it's a story that not only inspires but also educates. The book takes us through Nez's childhood, where we see the struggles he faced in a system that was determined to erase his culture and identity. However, Nez was determined to hold on to his Navajo heritage, and this determination would help him become a valuable asset to the US military. The book then delves into Nez's time in the Marines and his experience as a code talker. During World War II, the Japanese had cracked every code used by the United States. It was a dire situation, and the US was desperate for a solution. This is where Nez and his fellow Navajo code talkers come in. Their language was one of the most complex in the world, and it could never be deciphered. It was used to transmit messages during the war, and it played a pivotal role in securing victory for the Allies. Nez's account of his time as a code talker is fascinating. We get to see the training and the effort that went into creating this secret code. We also get to see the danger they faced on the battlefield and how the code was used to save countless lives. Nez's storytelling is candid and humorous, and it adds a human element to the book. He makes it easy to understand and relatable even to those who are not familiar with the military or history. One of the highlights of this book is that it includes the actual Navajo code used during World War II. It's a fascinating read, and it gives readers an insight into just how complex and intricate the language was. It's also a testament to the skill and bravery of Nez and his fellow Navajo code talkers. The book is well-written and well-researched. The author, Judith Schiess Avila, co-wrote the book with Nez, and she did an excellent job of capturing his voice and bringing his story to life. The book also includes rare pictures that add to the overall experience. In conclusion, Code Talker: The First and Only Memoir of One of the Original Navajo Code Talkers of WWII is a must-read for anyone interested in history, the military, or just a good story. It's a book that will make you laugh, cry, and feel inspired. Chester Nez's legacy is one that should be celebrated, and this book is a fitting tribute to his life and achievements.

 DESCRIPTION : He is the only original World War II Navajo code talker still alive—and this is his story . . .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.
