hi guys okay this was part two charles Chiba T Comanche code talker and this is
part two as a child Chiba diat ended the Fort Sill Indian School Port Sill
Oklahoma where he was punished if he spoke manche the school was many
government to run boarding schools established to assimilate Indian
children this was the first I've heard of this I didn't even I didn't know
anything about this other than the video that I saw about Canada the Smithsonian
Institution's exhibit native words native warriors explains that the
boarding schools were founded to eliminate traditional American Indian
ways of life and it replaced them with mainstream American culture initially
the government forced many Indian families to send their children to
boarding schools later Indian families chose to send their children because
they were no other schools available the schools used humiliation punishment and
coercion to separate the children from their native religion language and
traditions Shiva Dee attended high school at the
Haskell Indian School in Lawrence Kansas his native language was not forbidden
there but he was schooled in a strict militaristic style far from his family
Chiba Dee and his classmates exchanged traditional clothing and hairstyles for
uniforms and crew cuts they became accustomed to marching drills following
orders and strenuous athletics while at school he heard the rumors of war and
learned that the military plan to organize a native speaking unit during
Christmas break in 1940 Shiva Dee asked for a n received his mother's permission
to enlist private activity easily transitioned into military life
he joined 16 other Comanche sent to Fort Benning Georgia for basic training and
then to the signal school at Fort Gordon Georgia for training as radio men their
primary mission was to create cold language the Germans could not decipher
they created a military dictionary of 100 words from their native tongue if a
word they needed did not exist in command
they made up a term from other Comanche words to fill that need that's kind of
fun because I have fun making up words to their coab's never broken in addition
to d-day tivity participated in fighting at saint-lo hurt Jim Forrest the Battle
of the Bulge and the rescue of lost battalion during World War two corporal
jibbety earned five campaign battle stars and received a Calvary officers
saber from his tribe an honor comparable to the Medal of Honor among the Comanche
but it took nearly 45 years for the government to honor the code talkers for
their contributions 1989 the French government recognized the code talkers
of both wars 10 years later jibbety received another Nolan award from the
Military Intelligence Corps Association at the pentagon's Hall of Heroes someone
uncomfortable with the attention he focused on his Comanche friends who
served with him holding back tears Trivedi commented I always wondered why
it took so long to recognize us for what we did they has deceased comrades are
not here to enjoy what I'm getting after all these years yes it's been a long
long time I always wondered that to it yeah it's really sad to think that
chiminey held on good to his Native American roots even when he was punished
for doing so can you imagine that being punished I think that's so sad being
punished for being who you are
his Comanche language was both a source of comfort to him and an asset to his
military mission throughout his life he remained closely connected to his native
culture dancing in gourd dances to honor veterans and in powwow contests
throughout the country teaching his beloved Comanche language to anyone who
was interested he became a respected chief of his people inspiring new
generations to respect their traditions and preserve their culture for this and
for his exceptional contributions and sacrifice made during the war America
owes him her deepest gratitude and so it says the author's notes but the
information in this article on tivity are taken from the Smithsonian
