November is Native American History Month.  Today, we will talk about: 

John Kinsel Sr.  

John Kinsel was an American World War 2 veteran who was part of Navajo Code Talkers. He died on October 19, 2024, at the age of 107. Born in Cove, Arizona, Kinsel graduated from high school and enlisted in the United States Marine Corps in 1942. 

Code talker is the name given to American Indians who used their tribal language to send secret communications on the battlefield. Some of the most famous were Navajo (or Diné) code talkers who used their traditional language to transmit secret Allied messages in the Pacific theater of combat during World War II.
