Many of the Navajo soldiers recruited by the marines were valued for their knowledge of their native language. They created what is known as the Navajo code which was successfully used to pass messages among American troops while they fought the Japanese in the Pacific. This continued on Iwo Jima. These men were also exceptional soldiers.
