Gischt peitscht über das Deck des Zerstörers der US Navy (USN) der Arleigh Burke Klasse USS WINSTON S. CHURCHILL (DDG 81), während das Schiff durch raue See im Nordatlantik pflügt. Der in Norfolk, Virginia (VA) stationierte Zerstörer kehrt nach einem Einsatz in Großbritannien und Norwegen nach Hause zurück. Das Schiff ist nach Sir Winston Spencer Leonard Churchill (1874-1965) benannt, der am besten für seine mutige Führung als britischer Premierminister während des Zweiten Weltkriegs (WWII) bekannt ist.

This is an attempt to see World War 2 through the eyes of people who lived or fought on the territories controlled by the Axis powers, originally the Rome–Berlin Axis. Axis' principal members in Europe were Nazi Germany, the Kingdom of Italy, Hungary, and Spain. During World War II, Nazi Germany and Axis powers occupied or controlled a number of countries in Europe and beyond. At its zenith in 1942, the Axis presided over large parts of Europe, North Africa, and East Asia, either through occupation, annexation, or puppet states. The collection is made with an image recognition aid, so a small percentage of images may be wrongly attributed as European & 1939-1945. Here is a list of some of the countries that were occupied or allied with Nazi Germany during the war: Austria: Nazi Germany annexed Austria in 1938, after the Anschluss, which was the union of Austria and Germany. Czechoslovakia: Nazi Germany occupied the western and southern regions of Czechoslovakia in 1938, after the Munich Agreement.

France: Nazi Germany occupied France in 1940, after the fall of Paris. The French government set up a collaborationist regime in the unoccupied zone of Vichy. Greece: Nazi Germany invaded and occupied Greece in 1941, after the fall of Crete.
