Something very few people know; Throughout World War I and World War II many Native Americans served as code talkers for the United States Army. These code talkers were from at least fourteen Native Nations including but not limited to the Comanche, Cherokee, Assiniboine, Cheyenne, Chippewa, Choctaw, Cree, Crow, Sioux and more. These Soldiers went through basic combat training then developed and memorized a special military code using their language. They created two codes over time; the first code had 26 Navajo terms for each English letter so that words could be spelled and the second code had 211 terms and was later expanded to 411 so that they could translate more words from English to Navajo. In addition, they made a dictionary for military words that did not exist in Navajo. In World War I, the 142d Infantry served in France and utilized a company of Native Americans who spoke 26 different languages and dialects. Of these 26 languages only about 4 could be written. Once WWII began, the Army searched for a new code due to fears that the one from WWI had been studied. The 4th Signal Company of the Army’s 4th Infantry division assigned 16 Comanches as code talkers to transmit and receive messages. Then at Utah Beach at D-Day in France, Iwo Jima was taken in large part due to the Navajo code talkers. In 2001, Congressional medals were awarded to Code Talkers. #armyhistory #nativeamericanheritagemonth #nativeamericansoldiers #dosomethingpositive for your #futureself #dosomethingworthwatching #contactmenow 615-429-0932 #usarmyreserve #yourarmyreservecareercounselor #parttimejob #fulltimebenefits #usarmyreserve #globallypositioned #globallyengaged #parttimeservicefulltimebenefits #parttimeservicefulltimepride #parttimeservicefulltimesuccess #armyhistory Request Information | goarmy.com (at Middle Tennessee Area) https://www.instagram.com/p/CllZG87OPpy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hiram Rhodes Revels, a Republican from Natchez, Mississippi, is sworn into the U.S. Senate, becoming the first Black ever to sit in Congress. During the Civil War, Revels, a college-educated minister, helped form Black Army regiments for the Union cause, started a school for freed men, and served as a chaplain for the Union Army. Posted to Mississippi, Revels remained in the former Confederate state after the war and entered into Reconstruction-era Southern politics. In 1867, the first Reconstruction Act was passed by Congress, dividing the South into five military districts and granting suffrage to all male citizens, regardless of race. A politically mobilized Black community joined with white allies in the Southern states to elect the Republican party to power, which in turn brought about radical changes across the South. By 1870, all the former Confederate states had been readmitted to the Union, and most were controlled by the Republican Party, thanks in large part to the support of African American voters. On January 20, 1870, Hiram R. Revels was elected by the Mississippi legislature to fill the Senate seat once held by Jefferson Davis, the former president of the Confederacy. On February 25, two days after Mississippi was granted representation in Congress for the first time since it seceded in 1861, Revels was sworn in. Although Black Republicans never obtained political office in proportion to their overwhelming electoral majority, Revels and some 15 other African American men served in Congress during Reconstruction, more than 600 served in state legislatures, and hundreds of African Americans held local offices.
