So many men & women over the years did things to preserve our republic. This was one of them. A war hero from WW2 has died. You might want to note this thread. Movie, Windtalker, was made on the work he did for our cause, link in post above.

Three years ago my son was a US Army squad leader in Iraq. He had a PFC Yazzie (nickname “Windtalker) in his squad. He said that his grandfather was a Windtalker in WWII. I wonder if this was his grandfather.

I can’t do html but this is a youtube of Yazzie in Iraq. About 25 seconds into the video you can read his nametag.

Here is one of my son’s webpages which includes a photo of PFC Yazzie.
