has abstract	Joseph Oklahombi, né le 1er mai 1895 dans les (en) en Oklahoma et mort le 13 avril 1960 , est un indien Choctaw qui aurait eu un rôle clé dans l'obtention de la nationalité américaine pour l'ensemble des Amérindiens des États-Unis ayant reçu la plus haute distinction militaire française en 1918. Il est engagé dans l'armée américaine, dans la 36e division d'infanterie et participe au conflit de la Première Guerre mondiale sur le front français en tant que code talker. En octobre 1918, bataille de Blanc-Mont, à Saint-Étienne-à-Arnes, lui et son unité (141e régiment d'infanterie) neutralisent un nid de mitrailleuses allemandes et capturent 171 soldats ennemis. Joseph Oklahombi sera décoré de la Croix de Guerre, par le général Pétain, lui même. Avant 1924, un tiers des Amérindiens n'étaient pas des citoyens américains. Ils ne pouvaient obtenir la nationalité américaine que sous certaines conditions, comme celle d'avoir servi honorablement ce pays dans les forces armées, ou s'ils vendaient leur lopin de terre qui leur avait été accordé dans une réserve. Jeffrey Sanders, professeur d'études indiennes à l'université d'État du Montana soutient ainsi que ce fait a poussé les États-Unis à accorder la nationalité américaines à tous les indiens : « Voyez vous, il [Joseph Oklahombi] n'avait pas encore été démobilisé, donc il n'était pas encore citoyen américain. Quand le fait fut connu, les États-Unis se trouvèrent extrêmement embarrassés ». (fr) Joseph Oklahombi (May 1, 1895, Bokchito, Blue County, Choctaw Nation, Indian Territory - April 13, 1960) was an American soldier of the Choctaw nation. He was the most-decorated World War I soldier from Oklahoma. He served in Company D, First Battalion, 141st Regiment, Seventy-first Brigade of the Thirty-sixth Infantry Division during World War I, where he was one of the Choctaw code talkers. On October 8, 1918, Private Oklahombi was at Saint-Étienne, France. He and 23 other soldiers attacked an enemy position and captured 171 Germans while killing some 79 more. They held their position for four days while under attack. Oklahombi was awarded the Silver Star with Victory Ribbon, and the Croix de Guerre from France's Marshal Henri-Philippe Petain. At the time the members of the Choctaw nation were not formally U.S. citizens. Oklahombi was married and had a son. He was killed on 13 April 1960 when hit by a truck while walking along a road. He was buried with military honors at Yashau Cemetery in Broken Bow, Oklahoma. From Chief Gary Batton of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma: "Many of you know the story of the Choctaw Code Talkers of WWI and WWII and also the story of Code Talker Joseph Oklahombi, who single-handedly captured 171 Germans after moving 200 yards over open ground against artillery and machine gun fire, rushing a machine gun nest and capturing one of the guns. He not only turned the gun on the enemy for four days, keeping them under fire, he was without food and water those four days, killing numerous enemy soldiers until the rest surrendered. Although [retroactively] awarded … the Silver Star and Marshal Pétain, former Commander-in-Chief of the French Armies of the East, awarded him the Croix de Guerre, the Congressional Medal of Honor was never presented. It is a long-overdue recognition and I am working to see the Medal of Honor presented to Oklahombi." (en)
