An Unbreakable Code:

The Unbreakable code is very hard to crack. Philip Johnson is the man who created the code so the Japanese couldn't figure out their battle plans.

Philip Johnson:

Philip Johnson was a veteran from World War 1, and the starter of the code. He was also very clever and tricky because he had to come up with a tricky enough code that was very hard to figure out.

Navajo Soldiers:

The Navajo soldiers barely had any experience. They didn't have combat experience, and they never left the reservation. That was bad because since they didn't have combat experience, they didn't have a lot of fighting skills for battle. It was bad that they didn't leave the reservation because they didn't have a lot of experience of the outside world.

Accomplishments:

Navajo soldiers achieved a lot of things because of their work. All 29 soldiers, alive or passed, won a Medal of Honor, and a gold medal. They were very proud of the living and passed soldiers because of the work they did to get to that point.
