Because of the movie WindTalkers many of us have been exposed to a secret code used by the US Military in WWII. This secret code was based on the Navajo language and was unbreakable by the Japanese.

The dictionary used by the codetalkers was declassified by the Navy and posted on their website. For historicans interested in the Asian Theater during WWII, this makes for a fascinating addition to their WWII literature collection. The entire dictionary is online. You can view the entire dictionary here.

It also includes the Navajo Codes for letters of the alphabet, specific words, country names, dates, ships, airplanes, officer, organizations and a translation of The Marine Hymm into Navajo Code.
