Post some evidence that the Bonus Army members were starving. If you have none, then don’t make the claim. We both know you’ll fail because none of them died on the march or in camp of starvation. None of them. Newspaper stories from the time period are clear on this. Fact, of course, don’t matter to you.
“”Starvation is a severe deficiency in caloric energy, nutrient, and vitamin intake. It is the most extreme form of malnutrition. In humans, prolonged starvation can cause permanent organ damage and eventually, death. The term inanition refers to the symptoms and effects of starvation.””

Hunger is a symptom of starvation, if you want to reveal some truth that disagrees with the history, then YOU need to show that none of them were suffering routine hunger and inadequate diets.
Then some of us can tell you about our families who were suffering hunger and inadequate diets, and starvation during that time, and they were not on the road to DC to protest, which makes for a much more difficult existence for someone desperately lacking in means.
