Wikimedia Commons has media related to People by war.

This category classifies people (both military and non-military) who are associated with wars or warfare by the specific conflicts in which they were involved. (Please see the category guidelines for more information.)

The great majority of categories for particular conflicts are grouped according to the century in which they took place; e.g. Category:People of World War II is found in Category:20th-century people by conflict.
