X-WR-CALDESC:14 August 1982: President Ronald Reagan declared this day Nava
 jo Code Talkers Day.\n\nThe U.S. military in #WWI and #WWII developed code
  talking programs in which Native Americans used their own languages to co
 mmunicate secret messages on the battlefield. The Comanche\, Choctaw\, and
  Navajo Tribes were used most frequently as code talkers\, but members of 
 other tribes such as Creek\, Pawnee\, Cherokee\, Menomonee\, Chippewa\, an
 d Hopi contributed. In 1982\, President Reagan declared 8/14 National #Nav
 ajoCodeTalkersDay. Each year #OTD\, National Navajo Code Talkers Day honor
 s the contributions of the Native Americans who brought their unique abili
 ties to the war efforts. Today\, we recognize all of the tribes involved i
 n code talking. \n\nNative American Code Talkers (as an entire group) were
  inducted into the NSA Cryptologic Hall of Honor in 2013. The official pla
 que presentation took place in April 2014. Read about this event and view 
 their Hall of Honor page via the links below.  Also\, visit the NCM's virt
 ual Navajo Code Talkers' exhibit via the Virmuze link below. Learn about t
 he physical exhibit at the NCM that highlighted not only the Navajo and Co
 manche Code Talkers of WWII\, but also the Choctaw Code Talkers of WWI. Se
 e links below.\n\nFrom Navajocodetalkers.com:  The story of the Navajo Cod
 e Talkers begins in 1940 when a small group of Chippewas and Oneidas becam
 e a part of the radio communications 32nd Infantry Division. Soon after\, 
 Sac and Fox tribes joined in the ranks as combat radiomen. The complexity 
 of Navajo linguistics allowed it to become an ideal choice to be used in c
 ode due to the lack of documentation made available for learning to speak 
 the language and ability for the same words to mean multiple things based 
 on sound. The legacy of the Navajo Code Talkers will continue as many docu
 mentary and stories have been shared about their journey since it’s declas
 sification during Reagan’s Administration.
