World War II Trivia: The first German serviceman to be killed was by the Japanese in China in 1937. The first American serviceman to be killed was by the Russians in Finland in 1940. The highest ranking American to be killed was Lt. Gen. Lesley McNair, by the U.S. Army Air Coprs. So much for allies.
