WW2 was huge, they seriously couldn't have found anything besides a story about damn mailmen?
If they wanted to tell stories from different perspectives during ww2, they'd be better off making a movie about the North African campaign or the Japanese invasion of SE Asia. Plenty of non Whites fought in both those theaters, especially for the latter.
Hell, look up Lieutenant Adnan who served in British Malaya against the Japanese. I'm sure his last stand would make for a great movie if done right.
But who am I kidding, these studios only want to tell stories that they can twist into going "look, evil whitey".
I was trying to think of a old movie about ww2 I believe. Its centered around a draftee from appalachia. I remember the opening has a quote something like "The scariest men in a war are the quiet nice ones."
I couldnt figure it out, im sure if I remember the name but searching up the premise gave me nothing.
My point being, how many women in ANY of the wars, including modern ones, have been awarded for taking out a entire platoon of enemies to save their squad? Are there even any?
I dont think I have ever heard of a woman jumping on a grenade either? Maybe that was just war propaganda about men anyway?
I seen a comment in r/canada the other day where someone said something along the lines of "i dont care what you are as long as you can push buttons". Implying that the only thing to modern war is staring at a screen.
You still need boots on the ground and it might be a good idea not to alienate what has been typically the main driving force of that. Young white men.

No. At least three of them even survived doing it - John Carmichael, Jack Lucas and Kyle Carpenter.
