Code Talker

The First and Only Memoir By One of the Original Navajo Code Talkers of WWII

Chester Nez

This book tells the inspiring story of a Navajo code talker - the only remaining one from World War II. Despite facing discrimination and punishment for speaking his native language, he answered the call to defend his country and became an exceptional marine. His skills helped to create a secret military language that became the only unbroken code in modern warfare, ultimately helping ensure victory for the United States over Japan in the South Pacific.
