The secondary goal of Truman's Executive Order 9981 was:

**A to restore America's reputation as a model for justice and modern democracy.**

This order aimed not only to eliminate racial discrimination in the military but also to enhance the United States' image as a leader in promoting civil rights and equality, particularly in the context of the broader global fight against totalitarianism following World War II.
