Women joined the armed forces.
B
Women were hired to do jobs traditionally done by men.
C
Minority citizens were able to find jobs more easily.
D
More than one million African American soldiers fought.
E
All forms of discrimination were made illegal.

Explanation

During the war, women served in military organizations and took jobs in factories and other fields that had traditionally been done by men. Labor shortages also opened more employment opportunities for minority citizens, though discrimination did not disappear. More than one million African American soldiers served in the armed forces. The war did not make all forms of discrimination illegal, so E is not correct.
