Navajo code talkers used during WW2.

It means: Photograph machine guns capture grenade pick 'em off. That is what the Navajo Code Talkers dictionary said.. http://library.thinkquest.org/28005/flashed/timemachine/courseofhistory/navajo-dic.shtml

Its says something about a picture of a rapid fire /machine gun ect ect actually three or four phrases put together. Navajo code talker were used to throw off the japaneese, they knew english well enough to intercept our messages but they did not speak Navajo. They (code talkers) were our most usefull weapon

Talk about low tech but highly effective.

If you hadn't put the gov't use part in there I probably wouldn't have known what it was without looking it up. I did have to look up what it means though.

Well guys, we're in the "Strange yet Wonderfull Tech" area.....

Low tech, hi tech, strange tech......it all flies.....

DING DING DING......We have winners, this 'is' from the Navajo Code Talkers Dictionary.......Meaning: Photograph Rapid Fire Gun Capure Potatoes Pick'em Off.........On the English or code senders side it would say: Photograph Machine Gun Capture Grenade Sniper......

Obviously not a simple sentence as I wanted anyone who may have known to be thrown off........:innocent0002:

Yes, old school tech, yet....tech.
It's said we would not have ever taken Iwo Jima which was faught, February 19th 1945.....if it was'nt for the use of the Navajo language creating a new code which could'nt be broke by the Japanese.
