Nelson Draper  96 years old from Barstow, California  June 23, 1917 - September 22, 2013
 
Another Navajo Code Talker has passed away. Nelson Draper died on September 22 at the age of 96. There are only an estimated 25-65 Code Talkers left with us.  I couldn't find much on Mr. Draper, but what I could you can read   here and  here

These brave men and women sacrifice so much in their lives just so others may get to enjoy freedom. For that I am proud to call them Hero.
