Best Answer

The United States were not involved in the Jewish Holocaust but they liberated any Concentration Camps they encountered on their march to Berlin.

The Americans fought mainly in the Pacific Ocean capturing islands from the Japanese. A notable action of the Americans is the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

In the European Theatre, American soldiers invaded Normandy, France alongside English and Canadian soldiers under the command of American general Eisenhower.

The United States also helped financially the Allied countries.
