The correct answers are D and E. The American population saw the attacks as a reason for union and commitment to the country. The day after the attacks, the number of people enlisted in the Armed Forces was a record, and those who did not set out to fight for the country collaborated with the industrial production of armaments and supplies for the United States Armed Forces, in order to collaborate to win the war.
