Question 6 • United States History

What supply problems did the Allies face in Europe during World War II?

Answer

A

Supplies had to travel a long distance across water on ships that were often attacked, so they did not reach Europe.

B

Supplies had to travel a long way overland through harsh weather, so they often did not reach the troops that needed them.

C

Road and rail routes had been destroyed by the war, so it was hard to transport supplies to their troops.

D

Most supplies were manufactured in the United States, so sabotage by antiwar groups there was common.

Explanation

The Allies often struggled to move supplies across Europe because fighting had damaged roads, railways, bridges, and ports. These damaged routes slowed transport and made it difficult to get food, fuel, and ammunition to troops. Choice B describes this problem.
