Why Is Hitler Unbreakable
The Unbreakable At the eleventh hour, of the eleventh day, of the eleventh month of 1918 the world could rest once more. The armistice had been signed between the Allies and Germany in Compiegne, France, temporarily marking the end of World War I.

After seeing Johnston’s presentation of the power the code held, General Vogel and his staff immediately requested that the United States Marine Corps recruit 200 Navajos. From here on out, the code talkers would be used by all six Marine divisions in every assault the U.S. Marines carried out in the Pacific Theater from
