Native American World War Ii

Navajo Code Talkers: Voices of the Unbreakable Code by Cyril Marlen tells the extraordinary true story of how a group of young Navajo men turned their ancient language into the most secure military code of World War II—one that not even the best enemy cryptographers could break. When American forces fought their way across the Pacific, secure communication became a matter of life and death. Japanese intelligence had cracked nearly every code the Allies used—until the U.S. Marine Corps enlisted the help of the Navajo Nation.
