This site is under construction and, to be truthful, probably will be throughout its existence. Even after I have all the dates covered that I consider important to the war, I will still be adding and subtracting and in general tinkering with what is here. Since I am not adding pages in chronological order, below is a handy chronological listing of all dates covered to date for convenience.
I realize that one can rightfully claim that the war actually began in 1937, or even 1931, but it did not have the makings of a global conflict at those times. Thus, we stick with the traditional 1 September 1939 - 2 September 1945 time frame, though with plenty of excursions outside it.
