Question #3 Women made many contributions to the war effort of the United States in World War II. One of their biggest contributions to the war effort was: Serving in support positions as clerks or secretaries Assisting military medical staff as nurses Working in war industries and factories All of the above were ways that women contributed to the United States’ war effort

Question #4 African Americans faced a great deal of discrimination in the United States during World War II, but many still chose to serve the United States.

Question #5 The War Production Board, as its name suggests, was an organization in the federal government whose task it was to coordinate resources and production for the war effort. One of the measures that the War Production board supported was: Rationing of important war materials and consumer goods Discouraging Americans from producing their own food Communal farming based on the Soviet model Developing the atomic bomb

Question #6 President Franklin Roosevelt’s Executive Order 9066 allowed the American government to displace and intern Japanese immigrants and American citizens of Japanese descent.
