And so they could be very useful as code talkers.

Yeah, so when they arrived, I guess, over there for the war effort, The British commanders at the time had the foresight to keep them together.

And what they did was they paired them up in groups of twos.

And they would communicate over the radio because they knew that the enemy forces, you know, the Germans and whoever else was involved in the conflict, they couldn't decode.

They couldn't decipher the language.

And even if they had a... working understanding of Ojibwe because it is highly contextual.

I'm not convinced that they would get the context but they would relay communications over the radio and they paired them up in groups of twos and there were four men and it's important to remember as well that their involvement in the war effort was completely voluntary.

It's a celebration of resilience.
