World War II in 1945.

The Miss America Organization said in a statement Monday that Myerson would be remembered for her unwavering commitment to equality. "Bess used her Miss America title to fight anti-Semitism and racial bigotry as she traveled around the country," the organization said. http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/20 ... ica-was-0/
