The Navajo language-notoriously difficult to translate under the best circumstances-proved an ideal top-secret medium for confounding the Japanese in World War II and transmitting combat intelligence quickly and accurately. It was the only code that the Japanese were never able to crack. Using first-person accounts, correspondence and Marine Corps documents, this remarkable story tells how Navajo code talkers worked together to create a unique ""code-within-a-code,"" and serve their country in dangerous combat situations-a daring achievement that remained secret for twenty-four years.

After watching a documentary on the Navajo Code talkers I looked for a signed copy of any books written about this incredible group of men. I located my choice on Alibris, Navajo Weapon by Sally McClain, got the book at a very good price, received it quickly and now have a book signed by 9 of the original Code Talkers. Yet the real thrill is reading in their own words the story behind the Code Talkers which includes a Navajo Alphabet and word guide at the end. Like so many of our veterans this unique and patriotic group of Marine Warriors are fading fast and their memory and service need to be honored.
