Bloodied members of the American Legion recover following a fight with members of the German American Bund (American Nazi Party) in 1938. World War I veterans especially hated the group and would make to interrupt their rallies when possible.
The men here were part of a 100 man group of mostly Jewish vets who infiltrated Hitler’s 49th Birthday celebrations being held at the Yorkville Casino in Manhattan - they were outnumbered by the 3,500 or so Nazi sympathizers in attendance, but nevertheless, at the signal donned their American Legion caps and started a ruckus.
