Over the course of the Second World War approximately 127.2 million people were mobilized. The world's population in 1940 was roughly 2.3 billion, meaning that between five and six percent of the world was drafted into the military in some capacity. Approximately one in every 25 people mobilized were women, who generally served in an administrative or medical role, although hundreds of thousands of women did see active combat. Largest armies In absolute numbers, the Soviet Union mobilized the largest number of people at just under 34.5 million, and this included roughly 35 percent of the USSR's male population. By the war's end, more Soviets were mobilized than all European Axis powers combined. However, in relative terms, it was Germany who mobilized the largest share of its male population, with approximately 42 percent of men serving. The USSR was forced to find a balance between reinforcing its frontlines and maintaining agricultural and military production to supply its army (in addition to those in annexed territory after 1941), whereas a large share of soldiers taken from the German workforce were replaced by workers drafted or forcibly taken from other countries (including concentration camp prisoners and PoWs). Studying the figures The figures given in these statistics are a very simplified and rounded overview - in reality, there were many nuances in the number of people who were effectively mobilized for each country, their roles, and their status as auxiliary, collaborative, or resistance forces. The British Empire is the only power where distinctions are made between the metropole and its colonies or territories, whereas breakdowns of those who fought in other parts of Asia or Africa remains unclear. Additionally, when comparing this data with total fatalities, it is important to account for the civilian death toll, i.e. those who were not mobilized.

This paper explores the gender dimension of the Greek civil war by analyzing the experiences and choices of the fighters of the Democratic Army of Greece . The study examines women's memory and lived experience through women's personal narratives and impressions. Social and collective similarities make their appearance, as well as changes in gender relations and shifts in female roles. The research discusses issues such as the politicization of women and their motivations for participating in the Democratic Army of Greece, broadening their horizons beyond domestic life, challenging masculinity and gender stereotypes, and emancipation before and during the war. In conclusion, it explores the return of women to traditional gender roles, forced domestication and their confinement to privacy after the end of the war. The main source of the research is the interviews conducted with twelve women who actively participated as armed fighters in the Democratic Army of Greece during the war. Non-probability: Availability Face-to-face interview
