Description
In wartime, unbreakable codes help armies win battles, and the advanced Navajo language was key to the success of the Battle of Iwo Jima during World War II. This book discusses how Navajo Marines risked their lives to translate secret messages during World War II, and what makes the Navajo language ideal for encoding messages and the special vocabulary the code talkers used in battle. It also includes an exercise to practice translating messages.
