| Video Discription | Through determination and ingenuity, by 1942, US cryptanalysts had deciphered the previously impenetrable World War 2 Imperial Japanese Navy code, known as JN-25.

Without the protection of fighter escorts, they stood exposed to the deadly barrage of Japanese defenses, from swarming enemy fighters to the ceaseless storm of anti-aircraft fire. The Americans faced almost certain doom. As the Battle of Midway roared into action, the men of VT-8 squared their shoulders, ready to stare down their fate… |
