Which of the following would not be considered a primary source for world war ii

The choices for this question are:

a) a picture depicting malnourished Jews at the Buchenwald Concentration Camp in Germany

b) a non-fictional story written in the 1950s about a soldier that served in World War II

c) a World War II Navy captain's diary describing explicit details about the Battle of Midway

d) a recording of President Roosevelt's speech asking Congress to declare war on Germany

The correct answer is B, a non-fictional story written in the 1950s about a soldier that served in World War II.

A primary source is a historical document (audio, video, picture, text etc.) produced in the exact context of the event we're studying and by someone that was present during the event and/or took part in it.

That's why something that was written after World War II and not by someone who was an active part on it can't be considered a primary source.

the answer would be logic.

if you are going to ask a question give options..
