More than fifty years after the Second World War, a number of African American soldiers were
awarded"•some of them posthumously"•with the Congressional Medal of Honor, which was the
nation's highest military award, and which was long overdue in recognition of their outstanding
bravery.
A. with the Congressional Medal of Honor, which was the nation's highest military award, and
which was long overdue in
B. with the Congressional Medal of Honor, the nation's highest military award for long-overdue
C. the Congressional Medal of Honor, which was the nation's highest military award, long-overdue
in
D. the Congressional Medal of Honor, the nation's highest military award for long-overdue
E. the Congressional Medal of Honor, the nation's highest military award, in long-overdue

OA E, pls tell why D is wrong
I red the sentence as
a number of African American soldiers were awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor, nation's highest military award, for recognition of their outstanding
bravery.
Isn't this correct?

INCORRECT; this continuous clause changes the meaning of the sentence to the meaning that the award is rewarded for long-overdue.... rather it means that soldier were awarded in long overdue "the congressional Medal of honor". Skipping comma has impacted the sentence. For example:
I bought a car, which has 1600 horse power engine of red color -> Engine is Red
I bought a car, which has 1600 horse power engine, of red color --> Car is Red

This sentence tests meaning clarity. D is wrong because it implies that the military award IS meant for long-overdue recognition, when in the fact the real meaning here is that the distribution of the military award was long overdue,a subtlelty that E captures well. Hence E is correct.
