I think you a trying too hard, or something. :-)

push_back is used to add an element, by increasing the size of the
vector by one and copying the parameter into this new object.

If you already have a vector of the proper size (as you do), you can
just assign new values to the existing elements:

*iter = begin_element++;

You can't do both at the same time!

The error message you get is about push_back returning void, which
cannot be assigned to *iter. That's true, but it doesn't tell us what
the real problem is.
