Default Re: Windtalkers

I haven't seen Windtalkers yet, but I intend to see it.
I first heard of the use of the Navaho language as a code in WWII in the 70's. IMO, that one idea was a bigger help to the war effort than any other.
Isn't it funny how a person may get a
Medal of Honor for a little bravery, but another one such as whoever first proposed this idea, will forever be nameless!
I wonder how many Japanese code breakers were punished for NOT breaking this code?
