Download A Rare Recording of Navajo Code Talker Dan Akee AudioBook Free
Dan Akee was area of the Navajo code talker systems of the US Marine Corps that relayed radio and telephone announcements in their local dialect during World War II operations. The method was fast and indecipherable to foe eavesdroppers, as Navajo is an unwritten terminology of extreme intricacy - with its syntax, tonal qualities, and various dialects - making it unintelligible to anyone without considerable coverage and training. It does not have any alphabet or icons, and it is spoken only on the Navajo lands of the American Southwest. By one estimation, during World War II, the Navajo terminology was grasped by less than 30 non-Navajos. Approximately 400 Navajo code talkers required part in every assault the US Marines conducted in the Pacific from 1942 to 1945. They offered in all six Marine divisions, Marine Raider battalions, and Marine parachute systems, transmitting announcements by telephone and radio in their local terminology. The code was never shattered by the Japanese, and its own security has been credited with contributing significantly to the catch of Iwo Jima in 1945. The following are two recordings from code talker Dan Akee.
