DATING AND MARRIAGE DURING WW2 IN NORTHERN AMERICA. Once the United States joined World War II, the urge to get married among many young couples proved too compelling to resist. In 1942 alone, 1.8 million weddings took place, up 83 percent from 10 years before! And two-thirds of those brides were marrying men newly enlisted in the military. Some married to avoid draft, since men with dependents were deferred until 1942. taken from fb/History of WW2
