Reverse (Tails): Features a variation of the Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate Tribe seal, showing the boundaries of the reservation with seven tipis representing the seven districts of the Lake Traverse Reservation. Inscriptions include “PACIFIC THEATRE,” “WORLD WAR II,” “LAKE TRAVERSE RESERVATION,” and “ACT OF CONGRESS 2008.”
This medal is a meaningful tribute to the dedication, ingenuity, and valor of the Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate Code Talkers, making it a valuable addition to any military or Native American history collection.
