If Robert McNamara is one of the options, then he is the correct answer - he was important in the Vietnam War, but not during the WWII.
Here's the order:
- Ptolemy's map of the world
- the first school of oceanic navigation
- Portuguese caravels with triangular sails
Details:
Ptolemy (ca. 100-150 AD) was an astronomer, mathematician and geographer in the Roman Empire era. Ptolemy's map of the world was a map based on descriptions in Ptolemy's book, <em>Geography, </em>which dates back to around the year 150 AD.
Prince Henry the Navigator started the first school for oceanic navigation at Sagres, Portugal, for training in navigation, map-making, and science. The date of founding of the school (and even full details about it) are a bit uncertain, but it seems to have been established in about 1418. Prince Henry was called "The Navigator" because of his strong support for sending out ocean exploration voyages.
Caravels were developed by the Portuguese around the middle of the 15th century (around 1450). These more agile ships were better suited to ocean sailing than previous ship models used in the calmer waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
<em>Due process</em> is a legal requirement that enforces a government to respect all of the legal rights that are owed to a person. There is an amendment in the 5th and 14th amendment of the US Constitution, which protects citizens against the arbitrary and unlawful denial of their right to life, liberty, and property. This requires government officials to follow fair procedures of a person's deprivation of the 3 previously mentioned rights, whether the offense to whom the person is accused is of civil or criminal nature.

<span>The relationship between inflation/deflation with </span>William Jennings Bryan's Cross Gold Speech is about how the country's economy had to accept the imposition of gold as the only way to validate American money; which Bryan felt was a punishment (making a clear allusion to the crucifixion and crown of thorns) the fact that only gold was proof of the real value of money and hence the economic depressions could originate. His solution to the economic depression he had started since 1893 was to mint "easy money" silver coins, with very little gold (a ratio of 16 to 1), unlimited, to end the depression.
