The statue of the spirit of the american doughboy was most likely first erected in nashville, georgia, because
a) many americans passed through nashville.
b) arlington cemetery would not accept the statue.
c) nashville was the home to solider from the statue.
d) nashville lost a large part of its population to the war.

The answer is D. 

The main ''Spirit of the American Doughboy'' statue wasn't made in Nashville, Georgia; it was initially finished in Americus, Georgia, then showed for general visibility in the hall of the Rylander and Windsor Hotels, then delivered on to the city of Nashville, Georgia, which had just been the first to put in a request for the statue. The request was set even before the stone carver, Ernest Moore Viquesney, had finished work on the piece. In any case, because of a postponement in installment by Nashville, the second statue made, requested by Furman University in Greenville, South Carolina, turned into the primary ''Spirit of the American Doughboy'' to be committed.
