What was the number one song in november 24, 1971?

According to musicoutfitters.com the Billboard #1 hit for that year was Joy to the World by Three Dog Night. I have not been able to find any data for the specific date you referenced.

U.S. Charts - Theme from Shaft by Issac Hayes.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
