In 1943, the war in the Pacific raged on. First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt went to rally the troops’ spirits, despite the disapproval of military command. Roosevelt planned a grueling itinerary. She visited several islands and hundreds of wounded in her first 6 days. The indefatigable First Lady inspected Navy hospitals, delivered a speech, attended receptions, and visited convalescing officers, all within 12 hours of her arrival. She lifted spirits among the wounded and morale among the troops. She continued her exhausting tour for a month, speaking to every patient in troop hospitals and taking down addresses to contact family members. Roosevelt traveled non-stop, risked her life, and greeted the last patient she saw with the same heartfelt sincerity as the first. Which of the following publications would have a different point of view of Eleanor Roosevelt compared to the author’s point of view?
A. A personal memoir from an injured naval officer who fought in the pacific theater
B. A brochure about women’s contributions to the U.S war effort
C. A newspaper clipping from the Honolulu Star-Bulletin in 1994
D. A historical Japanese military document outlining how to damage enemy morale
A historical Japanese military document would likely have a different perspective on Eleanor Roosevelt's visit to boost the morale of American troops during World War II. It may view her actions in a more negative or adversarial light, as it would be focused on the Japanese military's objectives and strategies during the war.
The other options (Choice A, Choice B, and Choice C) are more likely to provide viewpoints that align with the positive portrayal of Eleanor Roosevelt described in the original text.
Therefore, the Correct Answer is D.
