Navajo Code Talkers

The Code Talkers took part in every assault the US Marines conducted in the Pacific

Served in all Marine divisions Including parachute units Job- transmitting messages by phone and radio – in their language. A Code the Japanese could never break

Navajo is an unwritten language extremely Complex Without extensive Training tough to learn

No alphabet No symbols Is spoken only on Navajo lands in the Southwest

Marines recruited 200 Navajos to help with their mission First 29 recruited developed a dictionary and code words After training were sent to the Pacific

Japanese Baffled by the code Never cracked one used by the Marines

Navajo Code Talkers were long unrecognized Honored years later in Washington D.C. (2001)
