Explanation:

To determine the second event, we analyze the chronological order of Wojtek's story:

1. Event D: Polish soldiers first encounter Wojtek while traveling from Siberia to meet Allied forces (initial encounter).
2. Event C: After encountering Wojtek, soldiers learn he can't go on ships to the front (logical next step as they plan transport).
3. Event A: Wojtek is promoted during the Battle of Monte Cassino (a battle in the war, occurring after transport issues are addressed).
4. Event B: Wojtek entertains visitors at Edinburgh Zoo (post - war, as he is in a zoo after military service).

So, the second event is C.

Answer:

C. Polish soldiers learned Wojtek was not allowed on ships bound for the European front lines.
