The Navajo Code Talkers were 'expendable' should they be at an immediate 'high risk' of being captured, were they not?

I didn't see the movie, but I suspect that would have been true.

According to Michael Medved that was not the case. It's a Hollywood embellishment.

I was also "expendable" if at risk of capture.
LOL!
During "peacetime", while in uniform.
No, I was not given implanted dental cyanide to suicide myself.
It never ceases to amaze me how ignorant people pretend to be about the nature of the "service" of uniformed members of the USA DOD.
Just because you would not be willing to undertake potentially dangerous missions, does not mean that the people who did/do were/are unaware of the risks.
f-t-d, that was a stupid and insulting comment, that denigrates the intelligence of the men who risked their lives, and of those who died, for this country.
