Does anyone know of a good history (or ethnography) of the Windtalkers,
either in article or in book form? Or if such a study or account does not
exist, is anyone currently working on one or planning to do one?

On June 12 on NPR's Fresh Air, Terry Gross interviewed one of the original
windtalkers. The interview can be found at:

(If this link doesn't work, then just search the Fresh Air site for the
name "Roy Hawthorne".)

And if anyone is interested, one of my relatives told me that the Burger
King in Kayenta, Arizona (Navajo County), has a museum-like display of
photos and descriptions of the Windtalkers.

Thanks,
