The War Was Helped By Talkin IN Code

What is a code talker::
a code talker is an individual or group of individuals who talk in an obscure language to create secret communication during wartime. During the World Wars code talkers were important in using the Native American language as a basis to send coded messages. Several hundred Native Americans were used by the United States Marine Corps to send transmissions of secret tactical messages. Using military phone or radio sending codes that were built upon the Indian nation.

Code talkers were valuable not as weapon users or in combat but because of their native language. The cryptographic code was created and for years was unbreakable. The first code talkers were used in War War I. A group of Choctaw soldiers helped American forces battle the German Army n France. Tribal men of the Comanche an Meskwaki as well as Basque were used in and around many different countries during War War II. The Navajo code talkers were based in and around the Pacific and offered the greatest help . 

Philip Johnston a civil engineer has been credited for the idea of using Navajo language. Johnston's father, a missionary, lived around the reservation. The language of the Navajo was mysterious and had never been written. It was not only unbreakable but fast as well. As long as you were fluent in the Navajo language. 

In the spring of 1942 a group of 29 Navajo code talkers came together to create a dictionary and code words for the military terms. The code talker received a message translated it into navajo word and then into English. The irony of the code talkers and the knowledge of navajo language is that during the 1920s the United States tried to break the Native Americans of their culture and language. In fact, even after the war the use of the code talkers was kept a secret until the late 1960s when it was declassified. In 2001 the code talkers were recognized by congress.
