Called for an end to the segregation of American armed forces.
Explanation: Executive Order 9981 (issued July 26, 1948) declared equality of treatment and opportunity in the U.S. armed forces and set up a committee to implement desegregation. It did not primarily “recognize accomplishments” nor simply reverse Roosevelt’s EO 8802 (which addressed discrimination in defense industries), but specifically aimed to end racial segregation in the military.
