Categories: World War II | United States Military History

This is a mid-level category. Profiles should be added to the narrowest category possible, but may be placed here when further information is not known. See How to Categorize.

This is an upper level roll up category primarily for service branch and country level activities during World War II.

Individual profiles should be added to more specific sub categories.

If all that is known from an obituary, gravestone, etc. that the person fought in World War II for the United States, add them to this category.

NOTE: This is a roll up level category and should not have individual profiles. Profiles should be assigned to the branch of service when possible.
