Before the US entry into World War II, many Americans believed that their mlitary should not become involved in another war in Europe. US soldiers would later liberate many notorious Nazi concentration camps at the end of the war, and the experiences of those who served in the US armed forces helped to shape Americans’ impressions of Nazi Germany and World War II.
