∙ 10y agoI'm sure some were given a pass and didn't fight in WW2, But the two examples I can think of were Joseph Kennedy Jr. (who was killed in the war) and his brother John F. Kennedy who had a PT boat command that was sunk (PT109). President Teddy Roosevelt had a son who was a general and fought in WW2 and died.
