Code Talker

Nov 10, 2001

SAMUEL SANDOVAL, one of the original Navajo Code Talkers, gives a presentation to approximately 30 people at the Cortez Cultural Center Thursday night. Now 78, Sandoval joined at the Marines at 18 and spent four years overseas. The Code Talkers developed a code based on the Navajo language that proved unbreakable for the Japanese. Sandoval will give another presentation at the center on Nov. 30 at 7 p.m.
