SUMMARY:Film Series | Choctaw Code Talkers
DESCRIPTION:Choctaw Code Talkers is the personal and heartfelt story of Choctaw soldiers whose dedication and bravery assisted in ending World War I\, even though\, as individuals\, the men were not recognized as American citizens. In 1918\, in Northern France\, during the fiercest and bloodiest battles of World War I\, a small core of Choctaw American Indian soldiers foiled the German oppressors. These brave men used their Native language to transmit secure messages as part of the American Expeditionary Forces\, helping turn the tide of the war and ensuring an Allied victory. These men had volunteered to fight for the government that only a few decades before had caused the Choctaw Nation to experience a great tragedy known as the “Trail of Tears Removal.” \nThe film combines original archival war footage and images with testimonies from the Code Talkers’ families\, Choctaw Tribal leaders\, linguists\, military personnel and historians. Shot on location in multiple cities throughout Oklahoma and in Los Angeles\, California\, the program also includes intimate scenes from remote areas of Tribal Trust Land\, as well as museums and military bases. Choctaw Code Talkers brings a unique perspective to these forgotten heroes and their early wartime contributions. \n60 min.\, NR. \n<<WATCH THE TRAILER>>\n——\nThe Nicollet County Historical Society and Saint Peter Community and Family Education present these documentaries in partnership. The public is welcome to join us for these free films at the Treaty Site History Center.
