Answer:

first come, first served

Step-by-step explanation:

All veterans were supposed to get help paying for college, low interest rates on home and business loans (and no down payments required), help finding jobs, unemployment pay for a full year while they looked for work, and medical care from Veterans’ Administration Hospitals. This was regardless of their race or gender.

Answer:

Correct Answer:

whites first, then blacks first come

Step-by-step explanation:

The veterans' benefits was part of the policy called the Servicemen’s Readjustment Act of 1944 (the G.I. Bill). This was created to help veterans of World War II but signed into law on June 22, 1944 by President Roosevelt.

Some of the benefits include loan for house, loan for education, a $20 weekly unemployment benefit for up to one year for veterans looking for work. And, also, job counseling was also available.

Unfortunately, the application was with challenges like discrimination during its application. In many cases, benefits were administered by an all-white Veterans Administration at the state and local level thereby favouring whites while the blacks struggles to recieve the benefits.
