Was quite suprised to find this on my email this morning. Knew  Larry Thorne
but had never heard of the speaking in Finnish like the Navajo code breakers.

Good morning from Finland

I don't know if you already know this but as the Navajo codes were used in
military, so was finnish language used in the Korean war !!

The enemy didn't know what they were talking about.
These Finns were famous WWII heroes, who went to US army after our war
against russians.
They were friends of the legendary Larry A Thorne ( Lauri Torni ), our
national hero, and a SOG member in the USSF.

Have a nice day !
