WWII is never mentioned in Don Rosa or Carl Barks stories. Don Rosa is the
one who lets the Ducks make most contact with the real world, which I like a
lot.
WWII might be too sensitive and too short ago for use in a story and there
just wasn't any need for it in Dons' storys.
My guesses are:
I think Donald and Gladstone were to young at the time of  WWII. Scrooge
might have made some money out of the war.

There are Disney cartoons and newspapercomics made and written during the
war, in which Donald Duck lives during the war and has to cope with
shortness of supplies and stuff.
