Question 107: Dwight Eisenhower is famous for many things. Name one.

Official answers (any one counts)

USCIS accepts any of these answers. If the question asks for more than one, give as many as it asks.

  • General during World War II
  • President at the end of (during) the Korean War
  • 34th president of the United States
  • Signed the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956 (Created the Interstate System)

Grandpa explains

"Ike" led the Allies in World War II. Later he was the 34th president and created the Interstate highways.

Careful: these are NOT the answer

These are the common mix-ups. The app uses them as traps so you practice.

  • First president of the United States
  • Freed the slaves
