Walk of History

—World War II —

World War II
1941 - 1945
served 16,112,566 killed 405,400 wounded 671,846
The United States joined the Allies (Britain, France , Russia, China) to fight
the Axis Powers (Germany, Italy, Japan ) after the U. S. Military was attacked
by the Japanese at Pearl Harbor in 1941. U.S. Military forces sw action in
Asia, the Pacific, Europe, and North Africa. This was the largest and most
expensive war ever. Germany surrendered in May of 1945 and the Japanese
surrendered in September 1945 after the atomic bombs were dropped on
Japan to avoid additional loss of life which an invasion of the 4 main
islands of Japan would have caused. The political instability caused
by the war forced the United States to end its isolationist policy and
take an active role in the world during peace time.
