I seem to recall the native American indians had a code the Germans couldn't break, I  might have that wrong but am pretty sure I  recall something like that

Yep the code talkers could never be broken. My mom taught her first years as a teacher down on the Navajo reservation in Arizona, she took classes from one of the original WW2 code talkers.

But Navajo isn't taught to kids much down there anymore so it's likely the language will disappear soon.

another one of the many unrecognized Heros of war;; the Codebreakers .so many lives saved through Their unique system.of 400 codebreakers  only a hand full still alive . a story worth reading or watch the TV version. the codebreakers had "escorts" at all times . escorts had orders to eliminate the codebreaker if  being captured by enemy.

Brings to mind the movie "windtalkers" staring Nicholas Cage
