While there have been fictional depictions of Code Talkers, the real story of Native American soldiers who used their languages to create unbreakable codes during World War II is very much true.
Here's why:
* Historical Evidence: There's extensive documentation, including official military records, interviews with Code Talkers, and historical research, confirming their existence and role in the war.
* Government Recognition: The US government has officially recognized the Code Talkers and their contributions, awarding them medals and formally acknowledging their bravery and service.
* Legacy: There are numerous museums and memorials dedicated to honoring the Code Talkers, and their story is taught in schools and explored in documentaries.
While fictional stories may use the Code Talkers as inspiration, the core story itself is based on real events and real people.
