Navajo Code Talkers in the Field

A two-man team of Navajo code talkers attached to a Marine regiment in the Pacific relay orders over the field radio using their native language. The Navajo language was a particularly effective code during World War II, as it is not a written language and only a tiny number of people understand it. (Photo by © CORBIS/Corbis via Getty Images)
