Member of Original 29 Code Talkers Dies in U.S.
With this that means there is only 1 code talker left living. These great Americans did a great job and where a great key in the war! They will never be forgetten! RIP!
CAMP VERDE, Arizona -- Lloyd Oliver wasn't much of a talker, but it was clear that he was proud to have his native language serve as a key weapon during World War II. As part of an elite group of Marines, he helped develop and implement a code based on the Navajo language that helped win the war.
