The Navajo Wind Talkers were very instrumental in WWII using their Native American language to transmit codes the Japanese could not decipher. There were 400-500 Native Americans that served in the Marine Corps. Their job was to transmit secret tactical messages in the South Pacific Theater. The efforts of these men improved communications in the encryption at both ends of the message. It was sent by Navajo Wind Talkers in one area and received by another Navajo Wind Talker in another area of the front lines. Although we generally hear of code talkers in WW II, there was also a group in WW I from the Choctaw Native Americans. Other Native American tribes that helped with code talking were the Cherokee, Comanche, Choctaw, Lakota and Meskwaki.

The Navajo Wind Talkers were especially hard to decipher because of their complex grammar and the fact that at the time of WW II it was still an unwritten language. A code book was developed. Code talkers could encrypt a message at one end and decode it on the other end ten minutes quicker than the standard English message. When their various dialects, accents, syntax and tones were added into an already difficult language it is said that only people raised in that area could decode a message. It is generally agreed that without the code talkers the Marines would have never taken Iwo Jima.

Irina18 [472]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Supreme Court Justice Holmes once included this statement in a majority opinion: "During wartime, utterances tolerable in peacetime can be punished."  This statement informed the Supreme Court's later decisions on freedom of speech in that in times of war, citizens are not allowed to express comments or critics that could compromise the national security of the country. So in this case, freedom of speech could be suppressed during the time of war.

In the past, there had been incidents that could have compromised the strategy of the war due to some espionage activities. That is why the federal government has to be cautious with the information that is shared during war times.
