Unearthed World War II Pictures Show A Never-Before-Seen Side of History

Fallen Aircrafts

Aircrafts were extremely vital to the war effort. Pictured here is just one of the 94,000 planes that the US military lost during the air fights of World War II. Germany, by comparison, lost 76,000 planes. Additionally, the Soviet Union lost over 106,000 planes. It seems that no one left this war completely unscathed. Much of these airplanes were recycled into other airplanes.
