In Louisiana public schools, WW2 is barely taught at all...much less being accurate.
Im a high school math teacher...the US History teacher was showing me the state curriculum that he is forced to use. It starts post-Civil War and goes until modern day. Civil War and earlier is expected to be remembered from jr high. WW2 Topics covered:
-FDR speech following attack on Pearl Harbor
-Women and children's part in the war at home, working in factories and such
-African Americans in WW2
-Executive Order 9066 and mistreatment of Japanese Americans
-Little bit of Holocaust
Then it jumps to civil rights, then to cold war, then to modern day.

The way history is taught in public schools is absolutely appalling. If it's not too much of an emphasis on "important" dates it's a lack of emphasis on anything that isn't seen as an injustice.
