The correct answer is the Social Security Act of 1935.

Before this time period, giving financial assistance to elderly individuals was a policy left up to the local and state governments. However, due to the national impact of the Great Depression, Roosevelt knew he needed to help the millions of elderly American citizens who suffered during this era. This is where the Social Security Act comes in.

This act allows the federal government to give direct financial assistance to elderly American citizens. Along with this, it gave benefits to people injured in industrial accidents and mothers who had dependents.

According to the passage, what were George C. Marshall’s military contributions during World War II? Check all that apply.
Degger [83]

During WWII, George C. Marshall served as chief of staff of the US army from September 1, 1939 until November 18, 1945.

During his tenure he helped train US soldiers in modern warfare as an instructor at the Army War College in Pennsylvania.

He inherited an outdated and poorly equiped army, so he was also responsible for the modernization of the army and co-ordinated a large scale expansion of the military.

While Marshal wrote the document that would become the central strategy for Allied operations in Europe, Dwight Eisenhower would become the Supreme Commander of Operation Overlord.
