World War II came only 21 years after the Great War – a war that was supposed to be “the war to ends all wars.” The devastation and destruction that Second World War brought still leave scars in the minds of those who survived. It is a massive segment of history that still lives on infamy today. Here is a collection of photos from World War II that most people haven’t seen, and they speak more than you imagine.
