The Bonus Army was a march on Washington, D.C., in 1932 by approximately 20.000 World War I veterans. The Bonus Army sought early payment of bonuses for wartime efforts to alleviate the economic hardships of the Great Depression.
The Bonus March was a failure because President Hoover refused to accept their requests. The veterans were eventually given their bonuses as a consequence of legislation enacted by Congress after defeating President Roosevelt's veto. In 1936, the Bonus Army received its full compensation earlier than intended. The United States Congress voted to offer veterans of the war a bonus. They would be compensated $1.25 for every day spent overseas and $1.00 for every day spent in the U.S.
