History

Primary sources are things that come from persons directly involved in the events or lives being studied.  So, let's say World War II is our subject.  Any diary entries or letters (like the diary of Anne Frank or a letter by a soldier) would count as primary sources.  So would any official proclamations or letters or government documents -- such as the Constitution of France or a declaration of war by US Congress.

Secondary sources are written by historians or others after their study of primary sources.

<span>Primary sources are first-hand accounts of a topic while secondary sources are any account of something that is not a primary source. Published research, newspaper articles, and other media are typical secondary sources. Secondary sources can, however, cite both primary sources and secondary sources.

CORRECT ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Historically, the American armed forces were disproportionally drawn from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. A transition toward a smaller and more selective military has changed this tendency. Since the armed forces do not gather data on recruits’ family income, previous studies relied on geographic data to proxy for economic background. We improve on previous literature using individual-level data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 and study population representativeness in the years 1997-2011.

We find that recruits score higher than the civilian population on cognitive skill tests, and come from households with above average median parental income and wealth. Moreover, both the lowest and highest parental income categories are under-represented. Higher skill test scores increase enlistment rates from lower- and middle-income families while decreasing them for high income families. The over-representation of minorities in the military has declined in recent decades. Non-Hispanic White casualties are now over-represented in Iraq and Afghanistan.
