Listing of Allied WWII Units

The Allies of World War II were the countries officially opposed to the Axis powers during the Second World War. Within the ranks of the Allied powers, the British Empire, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and the United States of America were known as "The Big Three." U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt referred to the Big Three and China as the "Four Policemen". France, before its defeat in 1940 and after Operation Torch was considered as a major ally, though Poland's commitment was, in fact, larger.

During December 1941, Roosevelt devised the name "United Nations" for the Allies, and the Declaration by United Nations, on 1 January 1942, was the basis of the modern UN. At the Potsdam Conference of July-August 1945, Roosevelt's successor, Harry S. Truman, proposed that the foreign ministers of China, France, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom and the United States "should draft the peace treaties and boundary settlements of Europe," which led to the creation of the Council of Foreign Ministers.

Allied Reenacting

Allied reenacting units consist of groups doing impressions of almost every major nation which participated n the war. The United States, Britain, Canada and The USSR being the major nations reenacted today.

Bear with us

We have been performing a major overhaul of updating the Allied unit links for reenactor.net. LOTS of units have been added and placed back on the links page. This is a long slow process, so please have patience. If you would like your unit listed please fell free to e-mail us.

Donald R. Burgett (North East USA)
My name is Donald R. Burgett, author and WWII historian.  I was a 101st Airborne Paratrooper and fought in four major campaigns during WWII including Normandy, Holland, Bastogne, and Germany ending in Austria. I was wounded three separate times. World War Two ended after we had occupied Hitler’s home in Berchtesgarden, Germany. Discharged December 31, 1945 in Camp Atterbury, Indiana, at age 20. I returned home January 01, 1946 to Detroit, Michigan. I could not vote, buy a car on contract or buy a beer. At age twenty I was not legally old enough. I became 21 April 05, 1946.

I have wrote four books on my memoirs in the airborne. My first book “Currahee,” completed in 1962 and published in 1967, Houghton Mifflin Co., has been listed by Easton Press as one of the six best written books on World War Two. “Currahee,” Donald R. Burgett is rated equally alongside “To Hell and Back, Audie Murphy, “With the Old Breed,” Sledge Hammer, “Parachute Infantry,” David Kenyon Webster, “Baa Baa Black Sheep,” Pappy Boyington, “The War Journal of Major Damon ‘Rocky’ Gause,” Damon Gause.

My loyal friends started a worldwide fanclub that can be joined on my website/forum which I maintain.  Please feel free to visit anytime.
