Messages were put into code or encrypted.

Today at lunch I learned from a couple of friends who are veterans that they both operated encrypting machines during WWII and the Cold War. They were talking about typing 5-letter codes.

This site has a lot more information.

The Navajo Code Talkers who used the obscure Navajo language as a code is an especially fascinating story.
