THE NAVAJO CODE TALKERS: A CRYPTOLOGIC AND LINGUISTIC PERSPECTIVE
2000
Overview
Though much has been written about the Navajo code talkers of World War II, there has been little appreciation of the fact that the security of the code lay not in its cryptographic design or in the lexical and grammatical complexity of the Navajo language, but rather in the profound difference between the phonetic systems of Navajo and Japanese. This difference effectively prevented the Japanese intercept operators from producing the consistent transcriptions of coded messages that were essential to cryptanalytic attack.
