Woodrow Wilson was the President who was elected on a "No War" platform, got the US into WW1 and then took part in the Armistice and subsequent Treaty of Versailles that concluded the first phase of the Great War (which resumed in the late 1930s and was concluded with the start of the Nuclear Age).
Harry S. Truman authorized the dropping of the Little Boy, the first Atomic Bomb, on Hiroshima Japan. He also authorized the second A-Bomb, Fat Man (a more advanced implosion device) on Nagasaki, just to prove to the Army that it would work and to the Japanese that it was no fluke.
Dwight David Eisenhower (Ike to his pals) was the former Supreme Commander of the European Theater of Operations (ETO) in WWII. He bacame a brilliant president, and left office warning of the dangers of an expanding "military-industrial complex" that threatened democracy, itself.
Richard Milhous Nixon resigned before being Impeached following his active participation in a cover-up of the politically motivated break-in at Democratic National Committee offices in the Watergate complex (he was subsequently pardoned by Gerald R. Ford, his hand-picked successor).
James Earl "Jimmy" Carter is/was a peanut farmer from Plains, Georgia (mah home state, doncha know?) former Governor of Georgia and President after Ford's appointment ran out (his initials "JC" were used with humor and wit in campaign literature). He was a pretty poor president, all in all, losing his grasp of both domestic and international politics. However he was a very good man and was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts at negotiating a peace accord in the Middle East. He's still at it.

1917 was World War I, not II. In 1945, President Truman ordered the dropping of the Atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. THAT was WWII. Eisenhower was the President in 1953. He had before then been commander of allied forces in Europe in WWII. President Richard Nixon resigned from office under pressure because he was close to being impeached for obstruction of justice which means he tried to cover up the Watergate fiasco. He has been the only US President to ever resign.President Jimmy Carter had been a peanut farmer and won the peace prize in 2002.
I hope all this helps. Good luck!!

Chow!!

World War 2 was not in 1917...that was WW1...and Woodrow Wilson was president and he took care of business.

Franklin D. Roosevelt tried to keep the U.S. out of WW2 until Pearl Harbor was attacked. He died before the war was over. He was succeeded by Harry S. Truman and he ordered the atomic bombs to be dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. He was succeeded in 1953 by Dwight D. Eisenhower who served as the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Europe during WW2. Richard Nixon resigned office after the Watergate Scandal. Jimmy Carter was the farmer president who won the Nobel Peace laureate in 2002.

Harry Truman dropped the bombs, Dwight D. Eisenhower was the allied general who became president, Nixon resigned after watergate, and Jimmy Carter won the Nobel prize (he was a peanut farmer), as for world war 1 I think it was Calvin Coolidge but I'm not sure
