I Love Cowboys and Cowgirls Day
-- A cowboy is an animal herder who tends cattle on ranches in North America, traditionally on horseback, and often performs a multitude of other ranch-related tasks. The historic American cowboy of the late 19th century arose from the vaquero traditions of northern Mexico and became a figure of special significance and legend. In addition to ranch work, some cowboys work for or participate in rodeos. Cowgirls, first defined as such in the late 19th century, had a less-well documented historical role, but in the modern world have established the ability to work at virtually identical tasks and obtained considerable respect for their achievements.

National Navajo Code Talkers Day/ National Navaho Code Talkers Day
-- The diné bizaad – or Navajo language — helped the Allied forces in World War II to gain a victory over Japan. The Navajo men created an unbreakable code alphabet from their language by attaching familiar words to letters. Because August 14th is the anniversary of Japan's unconditional surrender and the end of World War II, this date was officially designated Navajo Code Talkers' Day in Arizona.

Read: Code Talker: The First and Only Memoir By One of the Original Navajo Code Talkers of WWII, by by Chester Nez, Judith Schiess Avila
-- During World War II, the Japanese had managed to crack every code the United States used. But when the Marines turned to its Navajo recruits to develop and implement a secret military language, they created the only unbroken code in modern warfare — and helped assure victory for the United States over Japan in the South Pacific.

• Navaho Code Talker Figure -- Representing the fascinating story of the unbreakable code, based on the Navajo language, used by American forces in the Pacific Theater during World War II. Lift G.I. Joe's arm (or push the button in his back) to hear any of seven historically accurate phrases, spoken first in Navajo, then in English translation. Phrases include (in English): hill 165 secured, request mortar fire, and attack by machine gun. Standing 11.5 inches tall, this action figure is fully articulated, with movable ankles, wrists, knees, elbows, hips, shoulders, and head, so he can strike almost any pose. He comes in full camouflage attire: a helmet, a shirt, pants, and shoes, plus dog tags, a web belt, a phone set, a backpack radio, and an M-1 rifle. A knockout collectible for the action figure crowd.

• Codes, Ciphers and Secret Writing -- by Martin Gardner -- Learn to use the most important codes and methods of secret communication in use since ancient times. Cipher and decipher codes used by spies. Explore the famous codes that changed the fate of nations and political leaders. And enjoy hours of fun experimenting with cryptography ― the science of secret writing.
