But DiMaggio's greatest triumph on the field coincided with the entry of the United States into the Second World War. America would not have a hero affiliated with a country with which it was about to go to war, so allusions to DiMaggio's heritage were dropped or curtailed. His image underwent a dramatic transformation - from ethnic sport hero to American mainstream cultural icon - during a critical time in United States history.
