Navajo Answer #2:

There were more than one tribe used by the US Military in WWII, although the Navajo was made popular by movies, the tribes were: # Meskwaki - North African theater: 1941 # Comanche - 4th Signal Company - European theater # Basque - Asian (Pacific) theater - May 1942 (abandoned for lack of personnel) # Navajo - Asian (Pacific) theater - 1942 Also please note that the Cherokee were the first "Code Talkers" used in military conflict - WWI (September 1918) 30th Infantry Division - Second battle of the Somme.

Adolf Hitler knew about the use of these "Code Talkers" in WWI, so he sent 30 anthropologists to learn Native American languages before the outbreak of WWII.
