Joey Carpenter rides his tricycle in the driveway of his new home after the Department of Veterans Affairs awarded its 20 millionth home loan to his mother, Elizabeth Carpenter, the widow of Army Cpt. Matthew Carpenter, in Woodbridge, Va., Oct. 26, 2012. President Franklin D. Roosevelt launched the VA's home loan program when he signed the G.I. Bill of Rights in 1944. Carpenter's son, Joey, stands in the doorway.
