The Bonus Army was “dispersed”. Yes - but two vets died and one source says 1000 suffered injuries due to tear gas.

A good reminder when folks say that the military will be on the side of Conservatives.

Yes but in the case of the "Bonus Marchers", the genuine veterans had largely dispersed and gone home and were replaced by assorted communists and anarchists itching for a fight... which they got.
