They spoke a language that the Japanese could not decipher.
Explanation:
The Code Talkers were Navajo Native Americans who spoke their native language over the radio during World War 2. The Japanese broke every other American code, so the American high command found a way to spread messages without any possibility of enemy interference. The Code Talkers changed the course of several battles with their messages. There is also a terrible movie about them called "Windtalkers", starring Nicholas Cage. It's not good. Don't go to see it.
