FUN FACTS FRIDAY It’s a fact: Five Navajo Code Talkers, Inventors of the Unbreakable Code chose Barstow as their home. The five code talkers Nelson Draper Sr., Jimmy Benally, John Chee, John Moore Sr. and Joseph Towne all moved to Barstow after the end of World War II. The Navajo language was chosen as a secret weapon in the United States' war efforts because it was impossible for a non-Navajo to learn and had no written form. Before the use of Code Talkers, it took mi...litary personnel up to two hours to encrypt and decipher secret codes. Every WWII combatant appreciated the need for an unbreakable code that would help them communicate while protecting their operational plans. The U.S. Marines knew where to find one: the Navajo Nation. Marine Corps leadership selected 29 Navajo men, the Navajo Code Talkers, who created a code based on the complex, unwritten Navajo language. The code primarily used word association by assigning a Navajo word to key phrases and military tactics. This system enabled the Code Talkers to translate three lines of English in 20 seconds, not 30 minutes as was common with existing code-breaking machines. The Code Talkers participated in every major Marine operation in the Pacific theater, giving the Marines a critical advantage throughout the war. During the nearly month-long battle for Iwo Jima, for example, six Navajo Code Talker Marines successfully transmitted more than 800 messages without error. Marine leadership noted after the battle that the Code Talkers were critical to the victory at Iwo Jima. At the end of the war, the Navajo Code remained unbroken.

#Honortheirmemory

Let us all remember and never forget.

Decoration Day originated to honor the Union and the Confederate soldiers who died during the American Civil War. By the 1900s it had become a day to celebrate all American soldiers who died while serving in the military. It wasn't until 1967 that it was renamed Memorial Day.
