"Code talkers" are people who talk using a coded language--most notably the 400-500 Native American Marines who served in the United States Marine Corps, whose primary job was the transmission of secret tactical messages. Code talkers transmitted these messages over military telephone or radio communications nets using formal or informally developed codes built upon their native languages. Their service improved communications in terms of speed of encryption at both ends in front line operations during World War II.
