Dec 1941(Pearl Harbor) through August 1945 (Nagasaki). There were Americans fighting in the war prior to the entrance of the US, but as a nation we were involved for nearly 4 years.

The easy answer is 3 years (late 1941 into 1942-1945). More specifically, the war started for the US on December 8, 1941, the day after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. President Truman declared the war officially over in every respect on December 31, 1946. It would be better to just say from Pearl Harbor in 1941 to VJ Day in 1945, so about 3 years. It should be noted that the US supplied help to its soon-to-be allies in the form of supplies and even pilots before officially entering.

The U.S., helped Britain before this date, but only entered World War II on Dec. 7th, 1941 when Pearl Harbor, base of the US Pacific fleet, was attacked. The war ended in 1945 in both Europe and the Far East with the surrender of opposing forces to the Allies.

Dec. 1941 to 1945 and then 9 more years of reconstruction. Oh and the U.S. military is still in both Japan and Germany. Who knows how long those soldiers are going to be there. If you look at the online CIA factbook, Germany and Japan have a higher death rate and lower birth rate than Iraq.
