Answer:

Island of Midway was established as a Naval base and remained prominent in the U.S. military due to its strategic location in the Pacific Ocean

Explanation:

Following World War II, the Island of Midway was established as a Naval base and remained prominent in the U.S. military due to its strategic location in the Pacific Ocean. By the late 1950's, the island became host to radar aircraft and crews that were a part of the Distant Early Warning (DEW) system.

The name Midway dates from the islands' formal annexation by the United States in 1867. ... In 1940 the U.S. Navy began work on an air and submarine base there. During World War II the atoll became an important strategic objective for the Japanese.

What happened in american factories during world war 2?
irina1246 [14]
I'd most likely say A, though they did discriminate since they were fighting this large-scale war, especially against the Japanese. But because this war was going on, they needed as much labor as possible. This was so they could have as much produced as possible, such as weapons and such.

I'm not sure if this is correct, so I'm sorry if it's wrong, but it'd be the one I choose.
Have a good day!

How did race and class shape women's experiences in the colonial societies of North and South America?
Liono4ka [1.6K]
For the answer to the question above, are you referring to colonial period?

because during the colonial period, European women in America remained entitled to the legal protections provided by imperial authorities, even when they occupied unfree statuses, such as indentured servitude. For instance, when masters or mistresses mistreated their indentured servant women physically violated the terms of their labor contracts, the servants had a right to complain at the local court for redress; in some jurisdictions, their pleas met with remedies from the bench. Nevertheless, patriarchal models of authority prevailed, and despite their access to the courts, indentured women remained restricted by a series of laws that gave their masters extensive powers over them. They could not marry or travel while under contract, and if they ran away, became pregnant, or challenged their masters, they would be penalized with extra terms of service. While the law in Virginia, for instance, penalized masters who impregnated their servant women by freeing the latter, at the same time the statute averred that such women might be unfairly “induced to lay all their illegitimate to their masters” in order to gain their freedom. The statutory language is clearly indicative of class-based notions of dissolute sexuality. Indeed, the statutes enacted across imperial North America, like those iterated above, were devoted to creating and enforcing differences among women on the basis of not only race but class as well.
