During World War II, Latinos contributed significantly to the war effort in various ways. Many served in the military, with over 500,000 Latinos joining the armed forces, fighting in pivotal battles across Europe and the Pacific. Additionally, Latino workers filled crucial roles in wartime industries, particularly in agriculture and manufacturing, supporting the production of war materials. Organizations like the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) also mobilized communities to support the war through fundraising and community service efforts.
Approximately 500,000 Latinos served in the U.S. military during World War II, and estimates suggest that around 20,000 to 30,000 Latinos lost their lives in the conflict. This number includes individuals from various Latino backgrounds, including Mexican Americans, Puerto Ricans, and others. Their contributions and sacrifices during the war have often been overlooked in historical narratives.

After World War II, eligibility for burial in national cemeteries was extended to all veterans who served honorably in the U.S. Armed Forces, regardless of the length of service or the time period of service. This included those who served during wartime and peacetime, as well as members of the Reserves and National Guard who were called to active duty. Additionally, certain family members of eligible veterans, such as spouses and dependent children, were also granted burial rights in national cemeteries.

Latino Americans fought in every major battle in which the United States was involved during World War II. The National World War II Museum estimates that between 250,000 and 500,000 Latinos served in the U.S. Armed Forces during the war. According to Senator Robert Menendez, more than 9,000 Latinos died in World War II. However, the exact number is not truly known, as statistics for Latinos were not kept separately at that time.
