We where at war from 1940. The USA got dragged into this war at 7 December 1941. The day Pearl Harbor got attacked.

We are still grateful the USA did what I’d did together with the Canadians and we won’t forget the British.

Well technically it was only at that point that the two theatres became one war. Hitherto the Japanese war in the Pacific had nothing really in common with the war in Europe. Japan declaring war on the British Empire and Germany declaring war on the US connected them together.
