Answer 2

World War Two was fought in two major places, the Pacific and in Europe. The war in Europe began when the German Army invaded Czechoslovakia on March 15, 1939. The Japanese became allies with Germany in the war and began military aggression, creating a war front in the Pacific. The European conflict ended six years later, when General Alfred Jodl signed the official surrender of Nazi Germany on May 8, 1945. Winston Churchill immediately announced that this day would be a national holiday known as Victory in Europe (VE) Day. Later, the war ended with Victory over Japan (VJ) on September 2, 1945 when Douglas McArthur accepted Japanese surrender in Tokyo Bay.

Answer 3

World War II veterans served everywhere in the world where there was a US uniformed presence of any sort. The Cryptographers in US embassies everywhere are uniformed service members. The guards at every US embassy is a US Marine. There is no short answer, even the recruiting sergeants in the middle of no-where USA were veterans. So I would have to say all over the world.

Europe, Africa, the Pacific and many other places all over the world. Check out Wikipedia for more info on WWII. You might be astounded to find out that 72 MILLION people died in WWII.

Answer 7

My dad was in the Navy during the war. He was in the Pacific Theater on a "baby flattop," which was an aircraft carrier, but not as big as ones like the Hornet, Yorktown or Lexington. His ship did convoy escort duty, so he wasn't involved in naval battles like Coral Sea, etc., but their convoys were attacked by kamikazes a couple times.

Answer 8

My Dad served in the Phillipines, my uncle in Germany. So the answer is the European theatre and the Asian-Pacific theatre.

Tons of Marines fought in Japan. Don't forget about them.
