The Trump Administration and the Department of Defense are deleting articles on the Navajo Code Talkers.

The administration claims that the Code Talkers represent Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). I do not understand why the administration focuses on DEI instead of seeking inclusivity.

The president and his cabinet need to read their history. The Navajo Code Talkers saved the free world. Our enemies could not decipher their encrypted code. The Navajo Code Talkers are to be celebrated as war heroes, not erased.
