How have your ancestors been effected by world war 2?

I think they were introduced to commie ideas. The north of Iran was invaded by the Soviet during WW2.

The only death I know of was my grandmother's uncle who died at sea when his ship sank.

There was also one time when my grandmother was walking to school on her own and there was a German air raid. She had to lie down in the street gutter, as her mum had told her to, while the bombs were falling around her. I can't even imagine modern parents in the UK allowing their young children to walk to school unaccompanied as it is, let alone while there's a threat of air raids.

Yes, many men died and the ones who happened to live through it all returned to a forever broken home after their family and loved ones paid the price of having lived in the wrong country at the time.

Exportation of labor from Mexico to the USA via the Bracero Program. My grandfather first started coming to the USA to work during this time.

Many deaths. German side of family and Japanese side of the family too. I haven't heard if any of the US American branch had been killed.

I know that my grandmother had to escape shit with her family. Like so many others. She is originally from Ostpreußen. My Grandfather is a little older (3 years) but I don't know what went on with him and his fam. Don't know any more details.
