Lithuania had declared neutrality on the eve of WWII, therefore was NOT obliged to fight in WWII. It was the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact that sealed Lithuania's fate in the 2nd World War. Lithuania never took any military actions as a state neither against the USSR, nor Nazi Germany. The only Lithuanians that took part in actually fighting in WWII was the 16th Lithuanian gunners division in the Red Army (created after occupation of Lithuania in 1940 June 15th by the USSR)
