Question options:

other branches of the US military lost funding because it went to the Navy


the US Navy was able to reduce the number of people needed to complete missions


Other countries were no longer a threat because the US Navy had doubled in size


His work in naval expansion aided in defense needed during the Pearl Harbor attack

Answer 1

Carl Vinson was very supportive of the US Navy. The first option choice is false, other branches of the US military never lost their funding because of the US Navy. The second choice is kind of true because better ships were built that required fewer people but that wasn't really the major impact. The third answer choice is partially true because Carl Vinson did double the size of the US Navy but other countries still were a threat to the US so this point is false. The last answer choice is true because Carl Vinson's work in naval expansion helped defend Pearl Harbor when it was attacked. The major impact was the last choice. Therefore, the answer is the last choice.
