War Diary
Day-by-Day Chronicle of WW2

This War Diary of WW2 is an accurate day-by-day record of events from Friday, September 1, 1939 to Sunday, September 30, 1945. The work on this war diary was started on September 1, 2009 and will be continued until September 30, 2015. Every day a new entry with the events of the same day - 70 years ago - will be added.

Picture left: The moment of death on the battlefield, as it happens every day thousands of times in this or a other way.

The total number of entries will exceeds 6,300. These are divided into eight categories - Land Campaigns; Sea War; Air War; Home Fronts; Occupied Countries; Secret War; Diplomacy; and Neutrals. Every effort has been made to check facts, statistics, ranks and designations against the last published researches, documentation or official war diaries (eg from OKW, Wehrmacht), but everybody should bear in mind that mystery and controversy still surround many famous events and incidents.
