Answer 1

C: During the war, U.S and Soviet troops never fought each other directly

Step-by-step explanation:

"There was no direct conflict/fighting between the USSR and the USA. Hence the conflict of ideologies between these two nations came to be known as the Cold War.

However, the two nations were involved in a lot of proxy wars. They tried to diminish each other's influence in the world by engaging in conflicts elsewhere.

A few examples: Korea, Vietnam, Cuba, Iran, Afghanistan and so on and so forth."
