Answer
A
served in the Pacific Theater under General Douglas MacArthur.

became the supreme commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force.

ceded his position to General George Patton.

Explanation

After commanding U.S. forces in Europe, Eisenhower was appointed supreme commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force for the invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe. This makes B, “became the supreme commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force,” correct. He did not serve under MacArthur in the Pacific or retire at that point.
