Why did the United States have difficulty supplying its troops fighting in the European theater of World War II?

Group of answer choices

Germany's navy controlled European waters, making it necessary to supply Allied troops by airplane.

Japanese and German air attacks destroyed many of the country's largest shipyards and factories.

The Axis powers blockaded the country's coasts, making it difficult for supply ships to leave their own territory.

Allied supply convoys had to survive submarine attacks and travel long distances to reach the troops in battle.
