Three cheers for the Choctaws—and all the other “Native Americans” for whom the emphasis is more on the “American” than on the “Native”.

Great job!

Have you heard of the group “Kiowa War Mothers”...?

They make the Spartan mothers look like soccer moms.

The movie “wind-talkers” was really, really bad. However, the real story of these men was amazing. I’d love to hear more about the other tribes with lots of volunteers as well.

I work with a branch of the Choctaw Nation (their healthcare system). Cool people. Chief Pyle is excellent, he’s doing great things for his people.
