Greetings, history enthusiasts. I'm Steve Matthews, and welcome back to WW2 Stories. Today, we're exploring one of the most extraordinary chapters in American military history—the story of the Native American Code Talkers, most famously the Navajo, who created an unbreakable code that helped secure Allied victory in the Pacific. It's a tale of ingenuity, courage, and the remarkable irony of how a people whose language had been systematically suppressed would use that very language to help save the nation that had once tried to eradicate it.
