In Stieg Larsson's The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, some members of the Vanger family were Nazis during the War.
In Harry Turtledove's Worldwar series, aliens invaded Earth during World War II.
In Poul Anderson's Three Hearts And Three Lions:
"'Those two worlds - and many more, for all I know - are in some way the same. The same fight was being waged, here the Nazis and there the Middle World; but, in both cases, Chaos against Law, something old and wild and blind against man and the works of man.'"
-Poul Anderson, Three Hearts and Three Lions (London, 1977), NOTE, p. 155.
In Anderson's "Time Patrol," a time traveller prevents his fiancee's death in a London air raid.

World War II casts its shadow over succeeding decades.
Nazis march now.

Kaor, Paul!
I've actually read the first five or six of Turtledove's WORLDWAR series before I became dissatisfied with it. But I did think it very plausible that if non human aliens were to invade Earth during WW II, that would indeed turn everything upside down and inside out. We WOULD find enemies becoming allies and Nazis and Jews, of all people, uniting against the aliens.
Neo-Nazis march and jihadists continue to conspire. Both are bad!

Sean,
When we condemn jihadists, you do not balance this by also condemning Nazis so why do it the other way round?
Paul.
