Best Answer

Harry Truman was the 2nd President to lead the US in World War II. He was in office from 1945 to 1953.

For most of the war, and for many years before, the President was Franklin D. Roosevelt (served 1933 to 1945). But FDR died in April, 1945, 4 months before the end of the war. Truman, who had just become Vice President in January, became President.
