During the Battle of Iwo Jima, Navajo code talkers sent an extremely important message to US military leaders. It formed one word:

Sheep-Uncle-Ram-Ice-Bear-Ant-Cat-Horse-Itch

Here is the Navajo translation:

Dibeh, Shi-da, Dah-nes-tsa, Tkin, Shush, Wol-La-Chee, Moasi, Lin, Yeh-hes.

But what did it mean? Use these sections from the “Navajo Code Talkers' Dictionary” to see if you can decode it.

Hint 1: Pay special attention to the section on the alphabet.

Hint 2: Even after you decode the word, you probably won’t understand it. You will get more information after you complete part B.

Write your answer in the space provided.
