The Navajo code talkers were used in World War II to create an unbreakable code for secure military communications. Their unique language, which had no written form and was not widely known, allowed them to transmit messages quickly and accurately, confounding enemy intelligence efforts. This code proved vital during key battles in the Pacific Theater, significantly contributing to the success of U.S. military operations. The use of Navajo code talkers exemplified the innovative strategies employed by the U.S. military to maintain communication security.

Navajo as code talkers
After World War II, the U.S. government initially did not provide significant recognition to the code talkers for their contributions. However, in the following decades, their efforts were acknowledged, culminating in the 2000s when Congress awarded the Navajo code talkers with gold medals. In 2008, a formal recognition ceremony was held, honoring their crucial role in military communications during the war. This recognition highlighted their bravery and the importance of their unique language in securing American victories.
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.

The movie you're looking for is "Code Talkers," starring Nicolas Cage. It features Code Talkers during the WWII Battle of Saipan.
No only world war 2
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.

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.
Native American code talkers... the Navajo code talkers recruited by the Marines during the Second World War are the most famous of them, although the Army did recruit some Cherokee, Choctaw, and and Comanche code talkers. Additionally, the Marines hired some native Basque speakers for the same purpose. The "code" they spoke was actually their native language.
When you think of code talkers you think of the Navajo during WWII. However, less famous, but equally important were the Commanche and Choctaw code talkers
