At the age of 15, Peter MacDonald, a Navajo from Teecnospos, AZ, enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps. He went through boot camp at U.S. Marine Corps Recruit Depot (MCRD), San Diego, CA. Following regular combat and communication training at USMCB in Camp Pendleton, CA, MacDonald, along with other Navajo Marines, was secluded from other Marines for top secret Navajo Code School. During the final phase of World War II (1944-46) MacDonald served in the Pacific as Navajo Code Talker and North China with the Sixth Marine Division.

It’s really hard to learn my grandmas language. It’s hard those I hear myself talking to myself and my family is puzzled. I have no one to talk Navajo with being over here in Pennsylvania.
To think these people fought in wars for America beside Americans, they weren't allowed to vote until 1974, same as women. Honor and respect to the Navajo Code Talkers who helped win the war. A'ho 🤎
Yá át ' ééh Brother Peter. I would just like to express my deep appreciation for you taking your most valuable time to share your immense wisdom, knowledge, and ideas of the Diné with the world. May you remain indomitable. May your ideas come to fruition for the betterment of society. May your visions for the future grow and spread like the web of a spider. I will pray softly for this, and play loudly for it as well. God bless 🙏 Ahéhee'
Why were alot of German Mauser rifles made in United States of America during World War Two ?? I went to a banquet in Tucson Arizona and ended up sitting next to an American salesman that sold missiles to the so called enemy during the Dessert Storm War that followed the 911 promotion. I'm Sorry for the lies. When a lie is told the lier is hurt . But the lie believed ' the World is hurt . God Bless You Sir ❤
Love listening to Navajo sacred stories. It breaks my heart how all native people have suffered from the ignorance and horrors of others who think are superior to others. Keep teaching so all can learn. I love listening to the Navaojo history and religion
Anyone who thinks this is cap can just look at video game culture online. There was an age wall I got to be a 20 something part of 20 years ago, most online gamers were younger then me and it became kids teaching kids where no adults were, so teabagging became a thing, poor sportsmanship became the norm, juvenile culture of meanness became common. It seems people are growing out of it but still it's a good example. Also I remember when there was like an intelligence check to get on the internet back in 1995, it was almost utopian with free exchange of ideas and helpful advice before it became a corporate looting ground. To drive the point home there was a wonderful article, awful but educational, about African elephants that began to attack people. They moved a herd of elephants by helicopter I think it was, but the bulls were too heavy to carry, so they left them behind. The "teen" males began attacking people, they realized that there were no adult males around to teach the young elephants how to be elephants. Once they brought the bull elephants back in the attacks stopped.
You describe a parallel with Scots. In Scotland, we are desperate for Independence, but the English government will not allow it. We will get there, in the end 🏴 🦄 🏴 Thank you for your stories - I'm grateful to hear you

This Diné Man is stiLL wise. Bless his knowledge. He’s right, the bigger town & city needs to experience the same; no water, pay 💰 money to get water, pay gas ⛽️ to haul water 💦, & to be limited amount water used in each household. Thankful I experience with no water line, because when water source are gone we will be the one to stand strong because we have springs that no one else know. But hopefully my children and my grandchildren get to have continuous water flow waterline. Much respect. ✊🏾👏🏾🫶🏽🪶👍🏾💯‼️💐
