@Glovefullavasoline Well, he did encountered Native American soldiers during his time as a soldier during Word War I. He feared that they would be used again if the US joined the war. He wanted German military codebreakers to break US military codes in Native American languages. There is a saying 'In order to break any code, one must the language of the code'. That passage came from Edgar Allen Poe's story 'The Gold Bug'.
@Glovefullavasoline Native American code talkers were actually first used during World War I where messages were written in Native American languages. Adolf Hitler who was a war veteran knew about this and sent many German anthropologists to the United States to learn and study as many Native American languages as possible. Since the Germans may have some knowledge on Native American languages, their use was limited in the European campaign.
@Glovefullavasoline The Navajos are not the only Native Americans to be recruited to be code talkers. Other Native Americans like the Comanches, Meskwakis, Cherokees and Lakotas were also recruited to be code talkers. Most of the code talkers are Navajos as they have the largest Native American population and were widelu used in th Pacific. Native American codetalkers were limited used in Europe for the fear that the Germans may had some knowledge in Native American languages.
@Glovefullavasoline There are a few codetalkers from WWII who still alive. I've learn this in Codetalker (it's a class) and there is someone from the veteran office who work with these veterans. I am Navajo and I do have a friend who's great great (i think) grandparents who is a code talkers and yes he is alive. The director, I believe, was so inspire that he first have to talk with the codetalker before making this movie. They agreed but their part has to play by Navajo. that's all i heard
I understand Cage wanted to do his part, but if he can't hear out of one ear that's a very bad move cheating on the test. He could get not only himself killed, but his entire platoon.
@360Nomad lol.....well, oh a serious note, there used to be a biochemical weapon factory in mandchourie during WW2. it was much more brutal and ruthless than what the hollywood movies described. documents indicated that they used to do inhuman biochemical research on kriegies and civilians when they were still alive and healthy like injecting deadly virus into their body or even digging their heart out to observe its reaction under some specific circumstances.
@ethusiasm My best friend is half Japanese and he told me about how his grandfather worked in Unit 731 and got pardoned by none other than General McArthur.
My great Uncle Jimmy , was a sergeant in the Marine Corps during WWII, he was assigned to watch a code talker. The word was the same-protect the code-you will shoot the code talker and yourself. Uncle Jimmy, never talked much about the war...except anyone who bad mouthed a navajo-came under his scutinizing eye!
@SuperDumbo96 so do i i like tht phrase at 8:50 where he says" beg a majors pardon but i feel my best use to the corp is killing japs not babysitting some indian
An interview with a veteran code talker reveals that such order to kill the codetalker rather than being captured by the enemy may exist. This drastic move may be necessary to protect the code from falling into enemy hands. During war, drastic measures are needed in order to complete important missions.
I have a friend named Garry, he was a transriptor and had to listened in to the Soviets. He had this guy that trucked him around and said; "If you get captured, I have to shoot you. Where do you want me to shoot you first?"
"My balls, then they'll have nothing to hurt me with."
This movie doesn't actually spend any real time at all "showing the critical role" of the Navajo code talkers. It spends the vast majority of its time focusing on Nicholas Cage's character, the code talkers being relegated to secondary characters...
I sorta under stood that tape they played

is this a true story or just based on the code talkers? meaning these actors are playing real people or invented characters.
