Army-Navy Screen Magazine #43: G.I. Bill of Rights (1944?)
The film discusses the historical context of returning World War II veterans and the challenges they faced after the war. It highlights the passage of the Serviceman’s Readjustment Act of 1944, commonly known as the GI Bill of Rights, which aimed to provide veterans with support for education, employment, and housing. The film illustrates how the GI Bill helps veterans transition to civilian life through job placement assistance, unemployment insurance, and education funding. It emphasizes that while the government offers these benefits, it is ultimately up to the veterans to take advantage of the opportunities available to them.
