ZOOM - Talking in Code

Course | Registration opens 12/9/2024 8:00 AM EST

The Navajo Code Talkers are famous for using their language to protect U.S. Marine Corps radio messages during World War II.  But they weren't the only, or even the first, Native Americans to do so.  Learn how the U.S. military took advantage of the unique language of Native Americans to secure voice communications in both world wars.
