How when and where did the Navajo codetalkers participate in World War 2?
This is one of my favorite subjects. Thanks! The U.S. had their codes cracked quite easily so they had to come up with a more effective code. In 1942 Philip Johnston thought of a code that was unbreakable to the enemy. A code based on the Navajo language. Johnston headed to Camp Elliot (near San Diego) and presented his idea for a code to Lt. Col. James E. Jones, the Area Signal Officer. 29 Navajos were trained, 2 remained behind to become instructors for future code talkers and the other 27 were sent to Guadalcanal to use the new code in combat. The program was of great success. There were 50,000 in the entire Navajo nation and 420 men worked as code takers. The initial code consisted of translations for 211 English word most frequently used in military conversations (ie: officers/airplanes/months.) The code was explanded by cryptographer Captain Stillwell and 200 words were added and often used letters (A/D/E/I/H/L/N/O/R/S/T/U) were added. Now completed it consisted of 411 terms. The code was never written down, only spoken. The Navajos had to send and receive the code ASAP. The Navajos were met with skeptisism and not treated all that well, but once they proved their worth they were more widely accepted. From 1942-1945 Navajo code talkers participated in numerous battles in the Pacific, including Guadalcanal and Iwo Jima (to mention a few.) It is also of interest that these Navajo talkers realized that if captured by the enemy they were to die to keep the code secret, even if it meant being killed by one of their own. Hope this has helped. Marcy B. McBrain

When did like a virgin come out?
The Like a Virgin single came out November 6, 1984.
The album came out November 12, 1984.
I found it. It's "Garden in My Room" by Merril Bainbridge. It was on the album "The Garden," released in 1995. The lyrics are:
There's a garden in my room, would you like to take a look?
There are fascinating things you'll find there.
If you dare to come inside there is nothing I will hide.
Come where there is sweet perfume in the garden in my room.
There's a garden in room, it has apples sweet and ripe.
If you'd like to have a taste I'll let you.
Cherries red as they could be, such amazing things to see.
Everything is in full bloom in the garden in my room.
It's not far I can take you there, where the air is cool and dry.
Lay your head on my flower bed and I promise you you'll never ever want to say good-bye.
It's not far I can take you there, where the air is cool and dry.
Lay your head on my flower bed and I promise you you'll never ever want to say good-bye.
There's a garden in my room, would you like to take a look?
Rest your body on my velvet roses.
Once you've tasted my delights many days will turn to nights.
There is nothing you won't do for the garden in my room.

Why didn't Madonna participate in we are the world?
Although it may not seem as big of a deal today as it did in the early 80s, Madonna's sexual nature had a lot to do with it. Madonna took what Donna Summer started in the 1970s (a sexual image in music) and continued with it; and Madonna had the additional benefit of music videos during her start in music. That sexual image Madonna had at that time, which was really in-your-face for the 1980s, and the fact that she wasn't a terrific singer -she was more image driven- led Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson, and Lionel Ritchie to take a pass on her. She was just not taken seriously by the industry. Even an early 80s issue of Billboard Magazine, the music magazine of ALL magazines, stated she would only be around another 6 months before she disappeared off the music scene. Madonna's 'Material Girl" could have been another #1 song for her, but it was kept out of the top spot by "We Are The World", so it peaked at #2. But Madonna got her satisfaction later for not being invited; her "Crazy For You" was the song that finally displaced "We Are The World" from the #1 spot on the American chart.
Who has Madonna had a duet with and what did they sing?
Just google your question. Besides who cares about madona any more
Madonna was raised as a Catholic in the Christian religion.
in the mid-late 90's she discovered the religion Kabbalah and she to this day still believes in it and follows it.
if you see her wrist you will notice a piece of red string- this is part of kabbalah religion.
