b. to segregate the defense industry
c. to segregate baseball
d. to integrate the armed forces

The correct answer is D) to integrate the armed forces.

Truman issued this order after the conclusion of World War II. This was a step towards social equality for African Americans and was in part due to their honorable service during World War II. Groups like the Tuskegee Airmen made a significant impact on the war effort and ultimately helped the Allied powers to defeat the Axis powers.
