Concerning the "Bonus Army" of 1932, where veterans of The War to End
All Wars (1917/1918) were due a bonus in 1945, but wanted payment
early because they lost their homes in the Great Depression, Franklin
Roosevelt is to have said:


"Is to have said?" I would think that Roosevelt has pretty well said what
he is going to, by now!


Does FDR still talk to you?

That's very possible, but I was quoting someone elses research, so
have not verified that is what FDR actually said from a direct source.

But thanks for your interest.


Your first clue that the quote is not from Roosevelt is that he is
unlikely to have referred to himself as "President Roosevelt".

Dave, follow the link (i.e., point and click) in the "Armistice Day"
thread and read it yourself.

Good luck on that one now.

Brian
