Japan made this early war propaganda cartoon featuring an invasion led by an evil Mickey Mouse. Most endearing. Probably still warming the hearts of children everywhere.

Animation: Germans in the Woods
The Rauch Brothers made this animation that follows a story told by 86-year-old World War II veteran Joseph Robertson who fought in the Battle of the Bulge. It concerns his memory of killing a single German soldier.
Film: I Dreamt of Flying
Filmmaker Alex Bland made this animated/live action film about RAF bomber squadrons during World War II. He mixes hand-drawn illustration and archive footage from the war. The soundtrack is excellent. I really like how the film explodes into abstraction as the planes fly through the spotlights during an attack. Mr. Bland also made an excellent animation called Unforgettable Evil From Mars.
