I like to think that had I been the right age at the right time, I might have been a code-breaker there.<br /><br />Shanna, indeed, it's very easy to get lost. I've only scratched the surface in this post. There are many, many kinds of ciphers and codes, and so much fascinating history to go along with it all. <br /><br />The Code Talkers...yes, Julie, another fascinating bit of history. If memory serves me right, there was a film about the Navajo Code Talkers. <br /><br />Codes and ciphers have always intrigued me, and I've always promised myself that someday I would use one in a novel. It was quite fun, yet a bit challenging, too.<br /><br /> Christina Colehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05683771691877748530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152821032321828999.post-79709342235148430812015-01-17T13:14:07.316-08:002015-01-17T13:14:07.316-08:00Very interesting, Christina.

At the Air Force base by me, over the holidays, there was a group of the Apache authors selling their books pertaining to the codes used in the war. I didn't have time to stop and look, just found it all interesting. Looking forward to your release later this month.Julie Lencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03000865899885820362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152821032321828999.post-56898140507204031742015-01-15T15:28:09.823-08:002015-01-15T15:28:09.823-08:00Wow, Christina!
