Chester Nez, the last surviving member of the ‘Original Navajo Code Talkers’ has died at the age of 93. He was one of the 29-member Navajo team that created a unique code language out of their own mother tongue. This new unbreakable code helped in defeating Japan on some very crucial fronts during WWII. 

It’s remarkable.  These men stood up for the United States government after we came here and took over what was their country to begin with.

The Navajo Code Talkers are real exceptional warriors for having created this code. 

You’ve got to tip your hat to them, and to all the veterans of those wars.
