The second statement is correct.
The GI Bill (and related VA loan guarantees) made it much easier for veterans to get low‑interest, government‑backed mortgages with small down payments, which fueled suburban homebuying (e.g., Levittowns). The first is false (veterans were not given free suburban homes), and the third is misleading: the bill provided education stipends and other benefits, but not monthly checks intended for home purchases.
