I don't want to steal Dick's thunder but as a Marine it is only right that a Marine tell the story of the Code Talkers. These Marine played an important role in the conquest of the Japanese Empire through the use of the Navajo language. Native Americans have played a role in code talking since WW I. The Navajo language as it was used for troop movements, naval gun fire, air support was never broken by the Japanese. Here is great article that is more detailed on their part in the war: https://www.mnn.com/lifestyle/arts-c...n-world-war-ii


Semper fi my brothers may you rest in peace, may your service to this great nation always be remembered.
