Answer:
Gaddds where are you geting these answers!!! Yikes. Walt Disney was as American as Apple Pie and as a young man when deemed to young to fight in World War One he joined the ambulance corp and served bravely. When World War Two rolled around Walt Disney committed his studio to helping the war effort in many ways from lending facilities & personal to making training films to making films with pro-American themes. Yes there was a Donald Duck cartoon where he humiliated the Nazi's but don't recall the name.
Here is an amusing link & story --- (ck the link for great photos)

"INTRODUCTION (from LIFE Magazine) Disney Goes to War
One day in 1942, when new Navy torpedo boats were being launched, Lieutenant E. S. Caldwell, then of the Naval Operations office in Washington, wrote a letter to Walt Disney in Hollywood. He asked Disney to design an emblem appropriate for this new fleet of "mosquito boats." A few days later, back to the fleet came an emblem. It was a little mosquito, streaking through the water with a tar's hat on his head and a shiny torpedo held between his many legs. The insignia was such a hit that every torpedo boat in the fleet soon had a Disney mosquito. (In the photo at left, the insignia adorns the cabin of a PT boat.)
As soon as word got around in the Army and Navy as to what Disney had done, the Disney office was bombarded with requests to design insignia for tanks, minesweepers, bombers, and fighter planes. Disney did his best to comply. When Brigadier General S. B. Buckner, commander of the Alaska Defense Force at Fort Richardson, Alaska, received his outfit's design — a seal balancing the letters ADF, the general wrote Disney:
Since the arrival of the insignia, all of the seals in Bering Sea have been out on the ice pack halancing Ds on their noses, sneering derisively at the polar bears, expanding their chests, and cavorting merrily over being chosen to represent our defense forces.
It was clear that Disney and his artists had created a whole new system of heraldry, comparable to the ancient knightly arms. With requests for insignia stilt pouring in from the Army and Navy, the Disney studios announced that they had already completed more than 200 designs, and were expected to do at least 500 more. Two of their artists were working full time on the job.
If you've ever watched a WW II movie, you’ve probably seen an unusual and little-documented art form called "nose art." That's the term for the cartoons, drawings, and other markings that military crews painted on the noses of their aircraft beginning in France in the First World War. Walt Disney drove an ambulance in France shortly after World War I, and it's likely that he would been exposed to early nose art. In 1939, the famed American cartoonist was asked by the United States Navy to design a crest. Disney came up with a cartoon showing a wasp with boxing gloves, then went on to form a five-person team that created 1,200 aircraft insignias between 1939 and 1945.
According to the late WW II aviation enthusiast and author Jeffrey Ethell, "the Disney industry was pervasive in American culture and it influenced nose art in a number of different ways. Combat crews copied Disney cartoon characters because they were suitable subjects for humorous and patriotic themes. Disney's influence also included studio artists, who joined the military and then contributed their talents to the creation of nose art. Disney Studios and the U.S. government had a history of cooperation. At the beginning of the war in 1939, Walt Disney and his artists designed and painted squadron and unit insignia. Disney raised the spirit of the troops when he transformed the 'once staid military heraldry format created during World War I' into inspired designs. By the end of World War II, Disney's five-man staff assigned to insignia completed over 1,200 unit insignias, never charging a fee to the military."

Disney and World War II
How Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck supported the U.S. and its Allies
Robert Neff (neff) Published 2006-11-03 11:34 (KST)
Several years ago I had the opportunity to see a Dutch documentary about a typical North Korean woman's working-day. The documentary was extremely well made, but perhaps the most amazing part about it was that it had been sanctioned by the North Korean government. This film provided the viewer with an extremely candid, and not all together positive view of North Korea during the late 1990s early 2000.
I remember there was one scene that really disturbed me -- the children's preschool. The walls were painted with images of cute little animals, just like the walls of many daycare centers around the world, but unlike them, the little animals were not innocently playing, instead they were dressed in North Korean uniforms and were armed with weapons and slogans to use against the United States! It seemed almost sacrilegious of the innocence of youth to have these cute little animals transformed into symbols of war. Of course, North Korea is not the only nation to have done this -- the United States has done it in the past, as many other countries undoubtedly have.
When it became clear that the United States would join World War II, the country began making preparations. Everyone was asked to do their bit. Men volunteered for the military, women entered the work force to make up for the shortage of men, and families made do with less. However, not all of the men picked up weapons, drove trucks, or piloted planes -- some contributed to the war effort with pens and paper. One such group was Disney Studios.
Just prior to America's entry into the war, the U.S. Navy asked Disney Studios to assist in designing an emblem for one of the new American warships -- the U.S.S. Wasp. Disney Studios, appropriately enough, designed an emblem of a wasp wearing boxing gloves straddling an American aircraft carrier. It proved extremely popular and further requests were made.
Perhaps one of the strangest examples of Disney art being used in the war was by the enemy. According to Bruce B. Herman -- an expert on military antiques -- one German pilot painted an image of Mickey Mouse on his airplane. "It annoyed Walt Disney no end that the Nazis were using his creation."
Disney characters were such an important part of the Allied war effort that they were even used in top secret operations. The password for the Allied forces on D-Day was none other than the famous mouse himself -- Mickey Mouse.
Some of the most popular comic books during the war were the Walt Disney Comics and Stories. In these comics the war was seen from the point of view of the families back home, and the shortages that they faced because of the war. Several stories were about tin can and rubber drives, and growing Victory Gardens so that the produce of farms could be used for the troops overseas.
One particularly memorable comic book cover depicts Donald Duck, dressed in a cat costume, perched on a fence with a couple of real cats, meowing loudly in the hope that some tortured person, unable to sleep because of the yowling, would throw shoes or boots at him. At the base of the fence is Donald's little wagon full of old shoes with a sign proclaiming "2nd hand shoes -- no ration points." During the war everything was rationed and hard to come by.
Some of the stories were about spies amongst us, and how important it was to be aware of activity in our surroundings. Of course the enemy was always depicted in black; devious and evil at heart, but rather stupid. Good would always eventually triumph over evil, but only as long as the good were willing to make the sacrifices needed.
Even more ominous were the stories of real events. One story entitled "Donald Duck's Atom Bomb" was about a spy who tried to steal a top secret weapon -- the atomic bomb. Even amongst some of the Disney staff there seems to have been some concern about the use of such a horrific weapon being used in a comic. There are two versions of this comic -- one is a little nicer and instead of mass-destruction the bomb simply causes baldness.
Ironically, "Donald Duck's Atom Bomb" was a morning cereal give-away. If you ate so many boxes of a particular cereal you were able to trade the box tops for a set of comics -- this particular comic is now very expensive -- up to 1,000 American dollars, depending on its condition.
For the most part, comics from the war years tend to be hard to find. Many of them were destroyed during the paper drives, while others simply deteriorated because of poor paper quality. Fortunately within the last ten years, most of them have been reprinted at least once if not several times.
However, the comics that satirized the enemy and their efforts are very difficult to come by, because many have never been reprinted and won't be. They have been deemed politically incorrect because of their racial stereotyping, warlike and political stance, and the fact that yesterday's enemies are today's allies."
