Something that has ocurred to me before is will there even be any 
Quidditch in books 6 & 7 - after all there will be a war on won't 
there?  I know that a lot of people on this site are American and 
their homeland wasn't affected in the same way: Hollywood didn't 
stop making films so I assume that sports also carried on, but there 
was certainly no professional sport played in Britain during WW II - 
apart from anything else, all the professional sportsmen were 
fighting in the war.  As certain of the older Hogswarts students 
will be doing so too in some capacity or other, I wouldn't be at all 
surprised if Quidditch was one of the first casuaties.

I don't see either the first war or the upcoming second one to be
anything like a WWI / WWII style of war. Much less the state the U.K.
was in during WWII.  

>From the descriptions given (disappearances, trusting no one, murders,
FEAR) it sounds more like a Cold War with espionage
(most prevalent in OotP) leading the way with Covert and Black Ops
dealing with assassinations (on the D.E. side) and intelligence (on
both sides) with small battles like the one in the DoM.  Yes, this
such as Quidditch would be at risk, but DD's not a fool, there might
be extra precautions taken.  It doesn't seem as if quidditch was
cancelled the first time around either.

Maybe it's just personal preference on this, but I would be slightly
disappointed to see a Braveheart style battle on Hogwarts' grounds.
