What effect did the Great War have on the lives of American women?
A) Due to the limited number of male volunteers, many women were encouraged to join the armed forces, with significant numbers of them becoming accomplished pilots.
B) Because the United States was so populated that wartime never brought labor shortages, women remained confined to traditional roles within the domestic sphere.
C) Throughout the war, women were only permitted to support the war effort in traditional ways, such as volunteering for the Red Cross, running fund-raising drives, and working as nurses.
D) The war shook up American society to such a degree that most women who attained nontraditional wartime roles kept them for the rest of their careers and helped train a new generation of workers.
E) Due to the large number of men in the armed forces, women were encouraged, as the scope of the war widened until the end of the war, to take jobs that had been held primarily by men.
