The Answer you are looking for is B).

If you look back at WWII the way the U.S. ended the war was with a plane dropping the 2 atomic bombs on Japan. So I think that the "use of air-power" did more than a little to help change the way the war was fought.

Answer:

B. The use of air-power did little to change the way World War II was fought.

Step-by-step explanation:

During World War II, air warfare was present in all theatres, and all major participants depended on it heavily. Therefore, this is the statement that is not correct. Germany and Japan depended on an air force that was closely integrated with land and naval forces. The United States and Great Britain employed strategic bombing to a great extent, as well as tactical control of the battlefield by air. Air warfare significantly impacted how the war was conducted.
