Bonus Army fought with tear-gas
During the Great Depression US World War One veterans, popularly called the Bonus Army, marched on Washington in the summer of 1932 demanding immediate payment of their Service Certificates which were not due for redemption until 1945. Their demands were rejected and they and their wives and children were driven out by the police and army with tear gas and fixed bayonets.
