Publisher's Note
Using their native language, the Navajo Marines played an invaluable part in World War II as they sent messages, did maneuvers, and completed tasks with words that couldn't be deciphered by the enemy.

Industry Reviews
" [T]his is a book about victory, not victimization; the focus is firmly on the resiliency and grace of Native America in the most trying of times."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (02/01/2005)

"Readers who choose the book for the attraction of Navajo code talking and the heat of battle will come away with more than ever expected to find."
Booklist (02/15/2005)
