The first use of native American code talkers by the US Army was in World War 1, when Cherokees were used to transmit messages in their own language in September 1918. Later, Choctaws serving with the 36th Infantry Division were used to transmit messages in Choctaw.
In World War 2 Comanche, Meskwaki, Menominee, Lakota and many other native speakers were used as code talkers in their own languages as well as the Navajo; it would be morally wrong and disrespectful to ignore their contribution to the American war effort and give all the credit to the Navajo simply because Hollywood chose to make a film about them.
The last remaining World War 2 Oglala Lakota code talker, Clarence Wolf Guts, died in June 2010 at the age of 86 - see links below:

What US military code language was never broken during WW2?
There was no formal code language, however Native American radio operators from the Navajo, Cherokee, Choctaw, Lakota Sioux, Meskwaki, and Comanche nations, using codes developed from their own native languages made it impossible for non-native speakers to break the codes they used. This was not a phenomenon unique to WW2 theaters either. Choctaw codes were introduced during WW1. Nor were native American speakers the only ethnic group who found success using codes based on their native languages. Soldiers of Basque descent also used code talk they developed from their language in areas where Basque speakers were not likely present.
