Vets demand Bonus
What year did the following three events occur?
- Charles Augustus Lindbergh III, the baby son of Anne Morrow Lindbergh and Charles Lindbergh is kidnapped.
- The actress Elizabeth Taylor is born in February.
- The "Bonus March" boils over in Washington DC where McCarthur, Eisenhower and Patton all take part in putting down the rebellion of the World War I veterans.

1932?
1932 is correct. Did you look that up, Marty?
No I didn't.Honestly.I thought of that year with clue #1,but Liz clinched it.
I know exactly our age difference.(She's a LOT LOT older)The 3rd clue was totally unknown to me.
I picked Liz because she was born on the same date that I was. The Bonus March is a pretty interesting story. Ike had to run home to get his uniform on; in those days, wearing your Army uniform to work wasn't cool.
I'm sure you know the story of Ike wearing NOTHING once while at West Point.
