The efforts by DOGE to privatize VA healthcare and generally throw veterans under the bus were singled out for a lot of attention by speakers.</p><p>It was pointed out however that in the past protests against similar proposals were never held on such anniversaries as D-Day or Pearl Harbor Day. This time around, the renewed Fascist menace of Donald Trump spurred Veterans to deliberately invoke D-Day for the Bonus Army of 2025.</p><p>The original Bonus Army camped on the Mall after FDR refused to pay delayed bonuses owed to WWI veterans due to the Depression. FDR had the Bonus Army fired upon with live ammunition instead of considering meeting their demands that old promises be kept.</p><p>Note that as a lifelong student of WWII history and given I see the current conflict in the US as an attempt by Fascists to refight WWII, D-Day is a very, very big deal to me as well and in fact this is one of the reasons I am in DC right now.</p>
