EVHS Presents: WWII Navajo Code Talkers

Description

Wanda Patterson shares the fascinating story of 29 Navajos who created a secret code using words from their complex, unwritten language to baffle the Japanese enemy in the Pacific.

The skill, speed, and accuracy of the “code talkers” is an amazing story of Navajo bravery and ingenuity which remained classified until 1968, but is now receiving the recognition it so richly deserves.  EVHS reception at 6 pm; presentation starts at 6:30 pm.
