During World War II, Navajo soldiers contributed one of the conflict's most vital yet least publicized achievements by weaving their native language into an unbreakable code.
Via interviews with surviving code talkers, this History Channel documentary sheds light on the Navajo troops' role, valor and motivations.
The program also details their legacy's effect on contemporary Navajo and how the cipher has aided the United States since the war.
