In Response to Question by BOB, I Said Vets Treated Well After WW1, Was I Wrong?

Question by peter s: In response to question by BOB, I said vets treated well after WW1, was I wrong?
Although there were parades, and medical care was adequete, there were problems with The Bonus promised. Can anyone remember when General McCarthur attack the veterns’ tent city? Was it the thirties? What are your impressions of reason for this attack? Old man who forgot.

Best answer:

Answer by Patrick E
The attack was on the “Bonus Marchers” and it had to do with the veterans camped out on the Anacostia Flats – I understand MacArthur was in the military, but think it was shameful to attack a bunch of veterans who were standing up for what they believed.

I cant imagine what would be said if the army did this with a protest today

Please see the reference for specifics

– General George Patton Jr
