History

7 0
African American men and women served in every branch of the US armed forces during World War II. In addition to battling the forces of Fascism abroad, these Americans also battled racism in the United States and in the US military. The Army, Navy, and Marine Corps all segregated African Americans into separate units because of the belief that they were not as capable as white service members. Adding to this indignity, the Army frequently assigned white officers from the American South to command black infantrymen.

African Americans also served in equally vital positions throughout the Army as nurses, engineers, truck drivers, gunners, and paratroopers.

Explain the importance of land ordinances of 1784 and 1785, as well as the northwest ordinance of 1787, both for the early repub
Elina [12.6K]

The Land Ordinance of 1784 redistributed the new lands between the Appalachian Mountains and the Mississippi River into new territories. The original states had laid claim to the new lands but Jefferson created the land ordinance to ensure new states could be admitted.

The Land Ordinance of 1785 established a systematic way to divide the new western lands into 1 acre plots to create townships. Each township contained 36-1 acre square plots. With the 16th plot reserved for a school. The act set pricing for land that stayed in place until the 1860s. The reserved plot for schools demonstrated the government's desire to create public schools and to make education a priority.

The Northwest Ordinance of 1787 created the process for lands to become a territory and then to become a state. The act stated slaves were not allowed in the Northwest Territory and all civil liberties were to be protected by the governments. This act demonstrated the progress the Founders were hoping to make and the eventual goals they had for the country in creating new lands.

Why do you think the Allies wanted to trick Hitler into believing the attack was coming at Calais and not Normandy?
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Well the allies don’t want hitler’s main force to meet head on with the allies and there would already be many casualties and they don’t want more. Plus if they fail to land on the beach, Hitler could do something to America or Russia.  Sure the prime minister Churchill could land in Germany but the roses is hard. Hitler knew an attack was coming but don’t know where, witht he help of a few spies, they convined Hitler that the attacks was coming at Calais. So alot of troops were stationed there but actuall it was in Normandy. It was mainly to prevent the loss of troops and to have a higher probability of suucsefully capturing the beach.
