Explanation:
The Freedman Bureau, which was established by an Act of Congress in 1865 was set up with the Noble intentions of helping the millions of poor blacks as well as poor whites in the former Confederate States of the United States.
Even though they were not very successful in their mission due to the politics that existed at the time involving race and social norms, they still managed to contribute immensely to Black education.
They were responsible for building thousands of schools for blacks and they helped found universities and colleges such as, Howard University (named after one of the original heads of the Freedman Bureau), Fisk University and Hampton University.
<h2>Answer: Frank Sinatra
</h2>
Frank Sinatra was a singer, actor, producer and director who lived during the golden age of Hollywood. He was popularly known for his personality and impeccable voice when singing, one of his best hits being the song "My Way".
This artist characterized himself by always toasting with a glass of Jack Daniel's whiskey on the stage when singing. He was so fond of this whiskey that he asked to be buried with a bottle of this brand when he died.
His posthumous desire was fulfilled, after dying in 1998 due to a heart attack and other complications, at 82 years. He was buried next to his parents, with a bottle of Jack Daniels whiskey, a pack of cigarettes, a lighter and a dollar in dimes. Continuing his legend and his legacy after death.
The Allies invaded Normandy because it WASN’T as heavily defended as other parts of the northern French coastline.
The German High Command understood that the Allies were coming. They just didn’t know where or when. A pyrrhic mini-invasion of Dieppe in 1942 confirmed to the Allied High Command just how logistically difficult it would be to attack the Germans at their strong points.
The Germans fully expected the Allies to attack at or near Calais, the closest point in the English Channel between England and France. If you think the German defenses at Normandy were formidable, they were several orders of magnitude stronger and deeper in that area.
The Allies understood, too, that no invasion would have been successful without the ability to have supreme air power overhead, which limited the places they could realistically invade. Normandy was close to the outside limit of that range.
The Allies did a magnificent job of subterfuge in convincing the Germans that they fully intended to storm the defenses at Calais, including creating a fictional First US Army Group under the command of George S Patton, the general the Germans feared most and who they believed would lead the invasion. The Allied deceptions were so convincing that Hitler, who had been advised by his spies in England (who’d already been turned by Allied intelligence) that there might be a diversionary attack at Normandy, but that the main attack would still be at Calais, withheld deployment of serious armored reinforcements to the Normandy area for two weeks.
Normandy casualties, mostly from Omaha Beach, were the result of the fog of war, extremely poor weather and, consequently, extremely ineffective pre invasion sea bombardment of German defenses. But the invasion succeeded because the Allied High Command picked the right place, the right time and did their pre invasion homework flawlessly.
