View the President's RemarksWashington, D.C.

1:41 P.M. EDT THE PRESIDENT: Thank you very much. Today, America honors 21 Native Americans who, in a desperate hour, gave their country a service only they could give. In war, using their native language, they relayed secret messages that turned the course of battle. At home, they carried for decades the secret of their own heroism. Today, we give these exceptional Marines the recognition they earned so long ago. I want to thank the Congress for inviting me here, Mr. Speaker. I want to thank Senators Campbell, Bingaman and Johnson and Congressman Udall for their leadership. I want to thank Sergeant Major McMichael, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Washington, D.C. The gentlemen with us, John Brown, Chester Nez, Lloyd Oliver, Allen Dale June and Joe Palmer, represented by his son Kermit, are the last of the original Navajo Code Talkers. In presenting gold medals to each of them, the Congress recognizes their individual service, bravely offered and flawlessly performed. With silver medals, we also honor the dozens more who served later, with the same courage and distinction. And with all these honors, America pays tribute to the tradition and community that produced such men, the great Navajo Nation. The paintings in this rotunda tell of America and its rise as a nation. Among them are images of the first Europeans to reach the coast, and the first explorer to come upon the Mississippi. But before all these firsts on this continent, there were the first people. They are depicted in the background, as if extras in the story. Yet, their own presence here in America predates all human record. Before others arrived, the story was theirs alone. Today we mark a moment of shared history and shared victory. We recall a story that all Americans can celebrate, and every American should know. It is a story of ancient people, called to serve in a modern war. It is a story of one unbreakable oral code of the Second World War, messages traveling by field radio on Iwo Jima in the very language heard across the Colorado plateau centuries ago. Above all, it's a story of young Navajos who brought honor to their nation and victory to their country. Some of the Code Talkers were very young, like Albert Smith, who joined the Marines at 15. In order to enlist, he said, I had to advance my age a little bit. At least one code talker was over-age, so he claimed to be younger in order to serve. On active duty, their value was so great, and their order so sensitive, that they were closely guarded. By war's end, some 400 Navajos had served as Code Talkers. Thirteen were killed in action, and their names, too, are on today's roll of honor. Regardless of circumstances, regardless of history, they came forward to serve America. The Navajo code itself provides a part of the reason. Late in his life, Albert Smith explained, the code word for America was, "Our Mother." Our Mother stood for freedom, our religion, our ways of life, and that's why we went in. The Code Talkers joined 44,000 Native Americans who wore the uniform in World War II. More than 12,000 Native Americans fought in World War I. Thousands more served in Korea, Vietnam and serve to this very day. Twenty-four Native Americans have earned the highest military distinction of all, the Medal of Honor, including Ernest Childers, who was my guest at the White House last week. In all these wars and conflicts, Native Americans have served with the modesty and strength and quiet valor their tradition has always inspired. That tradition found full expression in the Code Talkers, in those absent, and in those with us today. Gentlemen, your service inspires the respect and admiration of all Americans, and our gratitude is expressed for all time, in the medals it is now my honor to present. May God bless you all. (Applause.) (The medals are presented.) (Applause.) END 1:48 P.M. EDT


Many Code Talkers earned medals, such as Purple Hearts, Silver Stars, Good Conduct Medals, and Combat Infantry Badges, during and after the war. But this was recognition that many servicemen and servicewomen received, depending on where they were and what they did in the war. Special recognition for Code Talking would not come for more than forty years.


What I want to do is to thank the whole people of America, the citizens. I learned that they are my people, too. For those that give us recognition through my travel, most of the Anglo people really show appreciation that how we contribute to the Second World War and I really deeply thank them for their recognition.


The National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, DC, is the home of the National Native American Veterans Memorial. The memorial honors all Native Americans, including Code Talkers, who have served in the United States Armed Forces.


I found out I was fighting for all the Indian people. All the people in the United States, all what we had, as we call United States. I found out this is what we were fighting for. From whoever try to take over us.


I like the sound of this game but the Exalted Reputation trophy seems like a nightmare to get playing solo. I've had a look around the internet but there's very little information on the medal drop rate. The only estimate I could find suggested medals could be farmed at the very slow rate of one every half hour. That equates to a 200 hour grind. Is this true? Does anyone know what the percentage chance of dropping a medal from the required enemy is? Can anyone confirm that the passive gift Revenant's Greed doubles the chance of a drop?


The medals are dropping by every boss. If I read it correctly you can do this trophy in the depths when you talk to Davis. Every boss in one area will drop a medal. You can do the easiest one and you have to only 10 hours.


I've found 2 medals outside the depths, and both were fixed items as opposed to drops. Get the misty ruins map, send a distress signal, and clear the map with an ally. Youll get 5 medals in about 10-15 minutes depending on how efficient the two of you are.


To answer your question. I would say based on my video below, the worst case was killing this guy 5 times without getting the Mark of honor medal. On the other hand, I got the medal 4 times in a row(this is the best). This way is SSSSSUUUUUPPPPPEEERRRR easy


I have killed over 10 with no drops while running Revenants greed. I hate grinds like this. I feel running Misty Ruins with a friend would probably be quicker but I do not know anyone playing this. plus my days off are in the middle of the week so it is harder to find players.


that is what I was doing and it took me about hour to get 10 medals with Revenants Greed. At least online each kill is a guaranteed medal. If you can run misty ruins in 10-15 minutes that is 20-30 medals per hour.


If you can play online and find yourself a good teammate, clearing Tower of Trials is easily the fastest way since you get more than 10 marks per run. After clearing the story, I was able to obtain this trophy in a little more than two days by farming the third tower repeatedly with random people online. There are still many players searching for distress signals in the towers.


Deliverance, a passive exclusive to Ishtar, makes it so that your teammate won't die unless you do. With the help of Cleansing Light, defense buffs, and regens, you should be strong enough to tank for the party. Just make sure to often block during the bosses' aggressive phase and let your teammate do the attacking.


Thanks for all the replies. I've just started to farm Medals of Honor from the Executioner on the first floor of Tower of Trials II using Revenant's Greed and Night Fog Veil. I'm at level 200. In the first hour I got 32 medals from approximately 100 fights. So it looks like the drop rate is about one in three. At this rate I'll be through this grind in about 12 hours, which is only slightly slower than the times quoted for completing it in co-op.


Was all excited playing through this and now I'm staring down the barrel of this trophy and god I feel like I'm going to be completely denied this plat simply because of this incredibly stupid grind. Would be easier but seems nobody is playing online in the depth maps.


I posted this on the other thread but the trophy isn't as bad as it sounds offline. If you have the ability to play online then that is much better, but if you are stuck offline (like me), run Trials I all the way through. Should net you 6-10 medals per run in less than 5 minutes.
