I never knew that about the use of Cherokee, Choctow, Comanche and Meskwaki Code Talkers! That’s awesome, and quite ironic, considering the fact that there was big push in the early part of the 20th century to ‘modernize’ the Indians, and have them stop using their language. Good thing THAT failed, huh?
Not really, people forget that being a radio operator and using code is a common job in the military, not having a handfull of men of Indian ancestry doing it in a rare language, was not something that American success in WWII was dependent on.
For instance the 4th Division had a few, but no other Division did, they all got by though with their regular, GI issue, white, unsung radio operators and code talkers.
