State of California fourth grade curriculum regarding Caesar Chavez’s Navy service
In 1944, César joined the United States Navy and served overseas for two years. While in the Navy he witnessed that other people suffered the pain of prejudice because they spoke different languages or were of different heritages. When he returned from the Navy he went returned to Delano to help his family work in the fields.
This isn’t about anything he did in the Navy for those two years.
