Answer:
B) Losing his leg in the Civil War.
Explanation:
A scandal is a situation or circumstance where a person's conduct is offensive or improper. The reputation of that person is ruined and is a violation of a certain 'code of conduct'.
Daniel Sickles was an American soldier, politician, and diplomat. Even though he courageously fought during the 1861 American Civil War, he nevertheless has several scandals that rocked his personal life. Not only did he murder his wife's lover in broad daylight, but he also took a mistress to England. Getting his leg amputated is not a scandal. On the contrary, the misfortune earned him the Medal of Honor.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
