Choctaw Code Talkers

In 1918, not yet citizens of the United States, Choctaw members of the American Expeditionary Forces were asked by the government to use their native language as a powerful communication tool against the German Forces in World War I, setting a precedent for code-talking as an effective military weapon and establishing them as America’s original Code Talkers. The film transports viewers back to World War I for an intimate and engaging look into the lives of these brave men, their families, their dreams and their patriotism to a country who would remember them as heroes, but not until after their deaths.
