Plenty of 1940 maps here:

battle of france - Google Image Search

If you type the name of Batles you'll find many more. Hope this helps

What times, what battles, what years even? If you could be a little more specific it would help greatly.

You could try these ones
France 1940
Maps WWII Blitzkrieg 1939-1940

Normandy, France 1944
Maps WWII Normandy Invasion June-July 1944

Various Western Front maps July 1944 onward.
Maps WWII Western Front 1944

Well, I tried "ww2 maps" and got these among others. It's not rocket science, if I can do it anyone can.

Do you expect to find common sense by googling it?

Like I said, I can find most of anything I want, it's only a matter of refining your google searches. For instance, my simple search for "ww2 maps" resulted in this:

ww2 maps - Pesquisa do Google

More than enough to keep myself content for a loooong time Like I said, no rocket science!

Thats odd. I would think "common sense" would come back with loads of info on Thomas Piane
