AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) 2 inches. The United States Coast Guard regulations require that fire hose stations be marked in red letters and figures that are at least 2 inches in height. This ensures that the fire station markings are clearly visible and easily identifiable in an emergency situation. The other options, such as 1/2 inch, 1 inch, or 1-1/2 inches, would not meet the minimum height requirement set by the Coast Guard regulations.
