The Vietnam War was not a 'popular war', especially on college campasses. Therefore when the soldiers came home, they were met at the airport by mob-protestors of the war..............and called baby killers. World War 2 soldiers returned home as heros, even tho they had undoubtedly committed atrocities themselves...............it happens in war. But in that era the whole country was behind the war.

The conflict between the Bonus Army veterans and soldiers in 1932 was sparked by the veterans' demand for immediate payment of bonuses promised to them for their service in World War I.
