Code talkers were Native Americans who served the United States in World War II by using their native languages to describe artillery, armaments, troop movements and so forth.
This scheme allowed the war-time commanders to communicate through the code talkers with the presumption that the 'code' in use would never be deciphered. They were correct: the code used by the code talkers was never 'broken'.

In May 2014 the five were honored by the Veterans of the Menominee Nation (VMN) and the Menominee Indian Tribe at the 25th annual Gathering of Warriors Powwow in Keshena, Wisconsin. Family members of the Menominee code talkers were presented with medals specially designed for the code talkers by the U.S. Mint. They also were presented with an eagle feather by VMN and danced to a special honor song for them at the ceremony.
