La Seconde Guerre mondiale est un conflit armé à l'échelle planétaire qui dura de septembre 1939 à août 1945. Elle consista en la convergence, à partir du 3 septembre 1939, d'un ensemble de conflits régionaux respectivement amorcés le 18 juillet 1936 en Espagne (la Guerre civile espagnole), le 7 juillet 1937 en Asie (la Guerre sino-japonaise), et le 1er septembre 1939 en Pologne (Campagne de Pologne), générant ainsi un conflit planétaire qui opposa schématiquement deux camps - les Alliés et l'Axe - et s'acheva le 2 septembre 1945. La Seconde Guerre mondiale constitue le conflit armé le plus vaste que l'humanité ait connu, tuant environ 62 millions de personnes dont une majorité de civils, ce qui est une première dans l'Histoire.  1, record 3, French, - Seconde%20Guerre%20mondiale

Nitrostarch, also called NS... is actually a mixture of several nitrate esters of starch.... Since this is really a variety of nitrated products the formula is [C₆H₇(OH) _x(ONO₂) _y]_n where x+y=3 and n is any whole number from one on up. The exact composition depends on the reaction conditions during the nitration. Nitrostarch found a use as a filler in hand grenades back in WWII, and also in mining explosives.  3, record 4, English, - nitrostarch

The War Veterans Allowance(WVA) is a transfer payment program, which has been in effect since September 1, 1930. The program is a form of non-taxable financial assistance available to Canadian Veterans of World War I(WWI), World War II(WWII) and the Korean War. It also acts as a "window of access" to other programs(e. g., Veterans Independence Program, Assistance Fund) for recipients and "near-recipients"(individuals who would qualify, except they receive income through other income support programs). The purpose of WVA is to ensure that, in recognition of wartime service, eligible persons are provided with regular monthly income in order to meet their basic needs, and maintain dignity.  1, record 5, English, - War%20Veterans%20Allowance%20Program

Le Programme sert également de porte d'entrée vers d'autres programmes (p. ex. Programme pour l'autonomie des anciens combattants, Fonds de secours) pour les bénéficiaires et les quasi-bénéficiaires (personnes qui seraient autrement admissibles si elles ne recevaient pas un soutien du revenu d'autres programmes).

WWII definition confirmed in CFP 152, the Canadian Forces Seamanship Manual. Corresponded to US Navy "destroyer escort" of the day. After WWII, Can. Navy adopted the term destroyer escort for newly-constructed vessels. Nowadays, the Canadian, U. S. and British navies all use the term frigate to mean a warship slightly smaller than and generally not as powerfully armed as a destroyer(although there is some overlap). With the possible exception of the DDH-280 class ships(classified as destroyers by Jane's Fighting Ships), all of Canada's present day "destroyers" are actually frigates, the word destroyer being used as a short form of "destroyer escort", which was their original classification.  5, record 8, English, - frigate
