Flagpole Army Base in Oregon and Klondike Army Base in Alaska are similar bases with similar duty loads. Despite the similarities, Klondike always has had more men than Flagpole has. Clearly, each soldier at Klondike must have to perform a smaller share of the duties, and therefore soldiers at Klondike must have more free time than do soldiers at Flagpole.
In evaluating the argument, it would be most useful to know which of the following?
(A) Whether those recruits who are in a position to choose, choose Flagpole over Klondike.
(B) Whether the officers administering the Flagpole and Klondike bases have had similar training.
(C) Whether the morale level at Klondike is higher than the morale at Flagpole.
(D) Whether regular furloughs from Klondike are longer than furloughs from Flagpole, to account for added travel time.
(E) Whether similar numbers of soldiers are stationed at comparable bases throughout the country.

(D) Whether regular furloughs from Klondike are longer than furloughs from Flagpole, to account for added travel time.

Furlough means leave of absence. I did not know the meaning, but I assumed that this is some additional loss of time due to travel (due to the nature of the question).
D is the correct answer in my opinion because if the time consumed for furloughs is high in Klondike, the Klondike base will have to have more soldiers to fill in the shoes of the people unable to work because of travelling.
So, even if Klondike has more people, the amount of work done by one person may not be very different from the amount of work done by one person in Flagpole, as the number of available people at any given time maybe the same.
Request fellow GMAT aspirants to contribute to the initiative started by GMATClub.

Out of scope
(B) Whether the officers administering the Flagpole and Klondike bases have had similar training.
Our conclusion is related to free time..So if they don't have similar training..Then they might get less or more free time.
(C) Whether the morale level at Klondike is higher than the morale at Flagpole.
Morale is out of scope
(D) Whether regular furloughs from Klondike are longer than furloughs from Flagpole, to account for added travel time.
Travel time is not related
(E) Whether similar numbers of soldiers are stationed at comparable bases throughout the country.
