MONDAY, JULY 21, 2003 Charles Chibitty, the last living Comanche Code Talker, spoke at the dedication of the Dole Institute of Politics at Kansas University on Sunday. As a World War II soldier, he was stationed in Europe to help the Army send decoded messages. "I often wondered what Hitler thought," he said, as reported by The Lawrence Journal-World. "I bet he said, ‘What the hell is going on out there?'" Also speaking at the event was Samuel Billison, a Navajo Code Talker. Get the Story:
