Description

Victor?s grandfather Lee held a secret that the young Navajo could only imagine. As Victor begins to unravel his grandfather?s past, an amazing story unfolds of courage and triumph on the battlefield. As World War II progressed, the U.S military desperately needed a communication code that couldn?t be broken. The decision was made to use Navajo?an unwritten language that is unintelligible to anyone without extensive exposure and training. That decision directly affected hundreds of young men, including Lee, who make the change from life on the Navajo reservation to being a key part of the United States? success in the war.
