As for cybernetic gorillas, I don't know if that fits in a more pulp WWII thing. Cybernetics in general are iffy, although maybe in a "horribly grafted into an animated body" type deal they might be fun.
In Hellboy, the had mechanical arms and hands, as well as brain enhancements.

There was also a Soviet project (which failed, of course) in the late 20's or early 30's to create a human/ape hybrid. The idea was that the hybrids would have been stronger and more loyal than humans.
