World War II was one of the defining moments in modern history, a global conflagration that transformed the world through battles, shifting alliances and horrors unlike anything in recorded history. The story of the war is often told as a series of great campaigns by famous generals, dramatic turning points and cataclysmic combat. But what about the millions of ordinary people — the citizens and soldiers whose names most of us don’t know but whose impact rippled through every aspect of the war?
