The correct answer is A. The Department of Defense was created to place the US Army and Navy in one executive department.

The United States Department of Defense is a department of the executive branch of the federal government of the United States in charge of coordinating and supervising all government agencies and functions directly related to national security and the United States Armed Forces.

Following the aftermath of World War II, President Harry Truman proposed the creation of a unified department of national defense. In a special message to Congress on December 19, 1945, the President cited both inter-departmental conflicts and excessive spending on military matters. The deliberations in Congress lasted for months, focusing largely on the role of the military in society and the threat of giving too much military power to the executive branch.

Describe the response of the political power structure of the deep south to the brown v. board of education and brown ii rulings

vazorg [7]

The Brown vs. Board ruling stated "separate but equal" schools were inherently unequal. In Brown II, the court ruled that states must do this with "all deliberate speed."

Even though this was the case, many southern politicians tried to stop desegregation. A perfect example would be the Little Rock 9. This group of nine African-American citizens tried to enter Central High School, a previously all white school. When they were about to enter for their first day, the Arkansas National Guard refused to allow them enter the school.This was one way in which state governments tried to prevent desegregation.

In response to this, President Eisenhower sent in the National Guard to escort the Little Rock 9 into Central High School.
