Tent of the Bonus Expeditionary Forces in Fort Hunt, 1933
Members of the Bonus Expeditionary Forces who are defamed as communists - commonly known as Bonus Army - eat and rest in their tent city in the former army post Fort Hunt. The veterans of the First World War are on the way to Washington. Members of the Bonus Army gather together each year in the American capital for the early payment since the street fights in 1932, the premiums for the participants of the First World War which were promised by the U.S. government first for 1945
