    The correct answer is A. To destroy military and civilian resources wherever possible

    Explanation:

    Sherman's March to the Sea was the name of a military campaign led by General William Sherman in 1864 as part of the Civil War, this campaign began in Atlanta and ended in Savannah. The main purpose and military strategy of the campaign was the "scorched-earth policy" in which soldiers from the Union destroyed the towns and cities they went through including military resources but also transportation networks and properties or similar that belong to the civilians as in this way the Confederacy could be weakened. This implies the objective of General Sherman's March to the Sea was to destroy military and civilian resources wherever possible.
