A) an audio interview with a soldier who fought in WWII. This is because the interview is from the point of view of someone one who personally experienced WWII. Since they were at the event, they are able to be used as a primary source when recounting information.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

All the other answers are from sources who didn't experience the event they're reporting on first hand. A primary source is a source that talks from experience of a historical event, which in this case is WWII. I hope I explained that decently well.
