What effect did world war 2 have on code talkers?

A lot of code talkers were killed off because when the Japanese saw them in the planes, they would kill the code talkers right away because the code talkers were the main source of communication.


Who were the code talkers?

Code talkers were Native Americans who served the United States in World War II by using their native languages to describe artillery, armaments, troop movements and so forth. This scheme allowed the war-time commanders to communicate through the code talkers with the presumption that the 'code' in use would never be deciphered. They were correct: the code used by the code talkers was never 'broken'. Read more, below.

How many were Menominee code talkers were there?

The Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin (MITW) has five (5) tribal members officially recognized by the federal government as serving as code talkers in WWII. They were honored in November 2013 in a ceremony in Washington, D.C. along with 211 other code talkers from 31 other tribes. It is important to note that there were other tribes than just the Navajo who served as code talkers. In May 2014 the five were honored by the Veterans of the Menominee Nation (VMN) and the Menominee Indian Tribe at the 25th annual Gathering of Warriors Powwow in Keshena, Wisconsin. Family members of the Menominee code talkers were presented with medals specially designed for the code talkers by the U.S. Mint. They also were presented with an eagle feather by VMN and danced to a special honor song for them at the ceremony. VMN and Department of Defense are continuing their research on other Menominee tribal members who served as code talkers. The ongoing research shows there maybe four to five other tribal members who served and/or trained as code talkers.


Who the Choctaws code-talker?

Few people know that before the Navajo code talkers, there were Choctaw code talkers. They were a group of fourteen Choctaws employed by the Army during WWI to transmit information safely. They played a big role in the final defeat of the Germans. Then, again during world war II, they were used along with other tribes such as the Commanche, Kiowa and Seminole as well as the Navajo code talkers.

Who were the first Code Talkers?

The code-talkers of World War II mostly refer to the Native Americans who used parts of their indigenous languages to translate secret tactical messages into code, then decipher the code back into the message. They were used in the Pacific Theater of World War II, and, to a lesser extent, in the European Theater. The most decorated Native American code-talkers were Navajo, but Native Americans of the Comanche and Meskwaki people also served as code-talkers during the war.
