Never Forget.
Living in Navajo country the Code Talkers are revered - the few that are still around. But there were also many Navajos fighting in Europe. The late father of a Navajo friend was a combat engineer and first in on D-Day and up front all the way across Europe clearing obstacles and booby traps. His service under fire was not recognized the way the code talkers finally were. He had disdain for them, said, "They were in the rear."
D-Day was an amazing feat from any perspective.
