“On the morning of January 24, 1955, Hayes was found dead lying near an abandoned adobe hut near where he lived in Sacaton, Arizona. He had been drinking and playing cards on the reservation with his friends and brothers Vernon and Kenneth. An altercation ensued between Hayes and a Pima Indian named Henry Setoyant, and all left except Hayes and Setoyant. The Pinal County coroner concluded that Hayes’s death was caused by exposure and alcohol poisoning. However, his brother Kenneth, a Korean War veteran, believes that the death resulted from the altercation with Setoyant. The reservation police did not conduct an investigation into Hayes’s death, and Setoyant denied any allegations of fighting with Hayes.”

RIP, Ira. I read a book about you when I was a teenager, and I still remember you all these decades later.

The Navajo code talkers probably shortened the war in the Pacific by at least half a year.
