USA: Navajo Code Talkers Honored in New York

The elite Marine unit of Navajo soldiers whose cryptic code remained unbroken

during World War Two was honored at the annual Veterans' Day parade in New

York City.

The Code Talkers are using their trip as a bid to raise funds for a museum to

honor their contribution to defeating the Japanese. Few of the original

400 Navajo Code Talkers are still alive. They say unless a museum is built

quickly their experiences will die with them. Nathan King reports:
