The Act that is being described is the Quartering Act, which was passed by the Parliament of Great Britain on May 15, 1765, at the request of Lieutenant-General Thomas Gage, commander-in-chief of forces in British North America. By this act of the Parliament, the local governments of the American colonies were forced to offer housing and provisions to British soldiers that had fought in the French and Indian War (1754-1763). If barracks and public houses were not enough to house the soldiers, they would be quartered in other places, such as inns, as well as in the houses of people that sold alcoholic drinks, and colonists must pay for their expenses.  

A second Quartering Act was passed a few years later, in June of 1774, but it did not require that troops be supplied with provisions, and a mutual agreement between the parties involved was necessary before proceeding to house the soldiers.

The United States contributes to the end of World War II in Europe and in Pacific as given below.

Explanation:

During World War II, the United States began to provide military supplies and support to the Allies. In the final battles in the European Theatre, American played a  vital role by helping the British forces in the D-Day when Nazi Germany surrenders its armed forces in 1945, marking the end of World War II in Europe.

After the attack on the Pearl Harbour, American entered into war and tried to capture the Pacific, which was under the control of Japan. Japan saw territorial expansion in Asia and the Pacific Ocean. The purpose was to become a superpower in Asia. The victory of the Battle of Midway (in 1942) played an influential role for the United States because they stopped Japan in expanding its power in the Pacific through defeating Japanese naval power.
